Abstract

The arrangement for producing electrical oscillations in a Giga hertz region has a Gunn element, a housing in which the Gunn element is accommodated and which has an electrically conductive housing cover, the Gunn element being in electrical contact with the electrically conductive housing cover, and an elastic, electrical contact element clamped between a contact surface of the Gunn element and the housing cover.
