Abstract
The first experimental results on Si/SiGe heterostructure mixed tunnelling avalanche transit time (MITATT) diodes are reported. The layers are grown by MBE. At 103 GHz a very low noise CW output of 25 mW is obtained. With an optimisation of the design higher output powers with still low noise operation are expected
