  • Abstract
    A GaAs monolithic planar chip consisting of two antiparallel Schottky junctions has been designed, processed and tested as a millimetre-wave crossbar mixer. The planar chip exhibited a broadband RF performance with a low conversion loss of 5.2013;70dB and noise temperature of 750 K at 94 GHz. The structure also exhibits a high burnout capability at W-band frequencies.
