GI308D
:) Mil spec variant is called 1I308D i.e. having number 1
instead of
letter G for Germanium. That is
true for all semiconductors made in former
USSR. In cyrillic it is called §¤§ª308§¥ or
1§ª308§¥. GI308zH (§¤§ª308§¨ in
cyrillic) is
even faster having 20mA peak current instead of 10mA for
GI308D
with almost same capacitance 1..4pF
vs 0.8..2pF for GI308D. And finally
there is
GI308K with 50mA peak current having 2.3..8pF capacitance
that is
similar to those used in Tektronix
S-52.

For the pulser built
from 067-0681-01 schematic the proper part is GI308D
that is actually much better than original
Tektronix 152-0177-02 tunnel
diode.
