Development of advanced Gunn diodes and Schottky multipliers for high power THz sources

Development of advanced Gunn diodes and Schottky multipliers for high power THz sources
Development of advanced Gunn diodes and Schottky multipliers for high power THz sources

An advanced step-graded Gunn diode (∼ 100 GHz fundamental frequency) has been developed using a joint modelling-experimental approach to test GaAs based Gunn oscillators at sub-millimetre wavelengths. These devices are to be used as high power (multi-mW) Terahertz sources in conjunction with multipliers using Schottky diodes as the non-linear elements. The modelled-measured results of low series resistance Schottky diodes with non-alloyed contacts are also discussed.

Abstract

An advanced step-graded Gunn diode (∼ 100 GHz fundamental frequency) has been developed using a joint modelling-experimental approach to test GaAs based Gunn oscillators at sub-millimetre wavelengths. These devices are to be used as high power (multi-mW) Terahertz sources in conjunction with multipliers using Schottky diodes as the non-linear elements. The modelled-measured results of low series resistance Schottky diodes with non-alloyed contacts are also discussed.
