Abstract :
The existence of current instabilities in epitaxial coplanar Gunn diodes was observed as a function of the nd product for air and oxide surface loading. Theoretical considerations indicate that the GaAs substrate and a surface depletion layer may substantially affect the stability of coplanar devices.
