Abstract

The demand for higher frequency applications is growing and a solid-state source for THz frequencies is needed. We compare experimentally demonstarted results of resonant tunneling diode and planar Gunn diodes for terahertz technology. The highest power demonstrated for W-band RTD oscillators at 75.2 GHz with -0.2 dBm (0.96 mW) and at 300GHz for submicron planar Gunn with -16dBm (28μW) are compared as the potential solid-state source for Terahertz applications.
