A novel planar design of Gunn diode with a shaped anode contact, utilizing Monte Carlo simulations, has been shown to have produced 0.3 THz frequency current output when operated in delayed mode. Two novel anode designs are investigated here, one with two fixed distances, and the other with three fixed distances between the cathode and anode electrodes. The corresponding waveforms generated, show two and three current peaks respectively. The work suggests high frequency and novel wave-shaping applications are possible in such devices.

延迟模式下工作的太赫兹频率整形阳极平面耿氏二极管的研究


具有成形阳极接触的耿氏二极管的新颖平面设计，利用蒙特卡罗模拟，已被证明在延迟模式下工作时可产生 0.3 THz 频率电流输出。这里研究了两种新颖的阳极设计，一种在阴极和阳极电极之间具有两个固定距离，另一种具有三个固定距离。生成的相应波形分别显示两个和三个电流峰值。这项工作表明高频和新颖的波形整形应用在此类设备中是可能的。
