  • Abstract
    GaAs tunnel diode oscillators are analyzed using a tenth-order power series approximation of the current-voltage characteristics of the diodes. The analysis yields significantly better agreement between measured and calculated power outputs than previous analyses which were based on a cubic approximation of the current-voltage characteristics.
