چکیده

A novel type of millimeter/submillimeter wave sampler based on resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) was proposed, and its operation was confirmed by circuit simulation. It consists of an RTD pulse generator and an RTD detector. Owing to the fuse-like nonlinear I-V curve, highly sensitive sampling can be obtained. We also found that the effects of nonideality in the I-V curve of the RTD can be corrected by sweeping the DC bias for the RTD detector. key words: sampler, pulsar, resonant tunneling diode

Demonstration of negative differential resistance in GaN/AlN resonant tunneling diodes at room temperature

GaN/AlN resonant tunneling diodes RTD were grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition MOCVD and negative differential resistance with peak-to-valley ratios as high as 2.15 at room temperature was demonstrated. Effect of material quality on RTDs’ performance was investigated by growing RTD structures on AlN, GaN, and lateral epitaxial overgrowth GaN templates. Our results reveal that negat...
