  • Abstract
    Mesa avalanche diodes shaped in ring structures have lower thermal spreading resistances than conventional disk mesa diodes of equal junction area. A simple analog electrolytic tank was built to measure the spreading resistance of ring geometries, A normalized curve was obtained which allows the determination of thermal spreading resistance for any ring structure.
