Abstract
We present a multiquantum-well channel GaAs-based planar Gunn diode. By introducing extra channels, the output RF power has been significantly improved compared to single-channel GaAs-based 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. The DC-to-RF conversion efficiency was ∼0.3% for the fundamental mode of oscillation.
