High Efficiency HBV Multipliers for Millimetre Wave Generation
Paper in proceeding, 2000
We describe the heterostructure barrier varactor (HBV) diode and its application in frequency multipliers. Different material systems and HBV models are described. In a frequency tripler experiment a maximum output power of 7.1 mW was generated at 221 GHz with a flange-to-flange efficiency of 7.9%.
