We have searched for narrow-band-noise (NBN) modulations of the infrared transmission in blue bronze, using tunable diode lasers. No modulations were observed, giving an upper limits for NBN changes in the absorption coefficient of $\Delta \alpha_{NBN} < 0.3 $ / cm ($\approx \alpha/2000$). The implication of these results on proposed CDW properties and NBN mechanisms are discussed.

A new design of reconfigurable sub-nanosecond pulse generator (PG) with pulse shape selection ability is presented in this paper. Step recovery diode is used as the pulse sharpening device and the pulse shaping circuit consists of a controllable RC differentiator in which a single PIN diode is embedded, which provides two different switchable pulse shaping performances. The realized PG has a compact (10 × 12 mm2) simple structure and is easy to implement while generating Gaussian and monocycle pulses with 510 and 660 ps pulse width, respectively. The proposed pulse shaping method is versatile and can be effectively modified and reconfigured to generate more complicated pulse shapes such as polycycle signals. The measured results reveal that the proposed reconfigurable PG is suitable to be used in systems with pulse shape modulation that require sub-nanosecond pulses at low pulse repetition rates.
