Abstract

We present a multi-channel GaAs-based planar Gunn diode. By introducing extra channels, the output RF power has been significantly improved compared to single-channel GaAsbased planar Gunn diodes. For a 1.14 μm length and 60 μm wide device, the highest power achieved was approximately -4 dBm operating in fundamental mode at 109 GHz, and -26.6 dBm at its second-harmonic at 218 GHz.
