Abstract :
An investigation of 94.5 GHz avalanche diode high order frequency multiplier is presented. The nonlinearity property of avalanche phenomenon has evoked great interest in high order frequency multiplication. Theoretical analysis of harmonic characters of avalanche current is outlined. In experiment 4.1 mW output power and 0.8% efficiency are obtained. Meanwhile the phase noise of 84 dBc/Hz at 10 KHz offset is measured.
