Abstract :
A generalization of the Impedance Method are proposed for the study of the double-barrier resonant tunneling structures under electric bias, taking into account the tunneling time delay. The feasibility of the DBRT with triangular well is also analyzed. We have shown that the characteristics of these structures make its applicable for broad bandwidths filters for high frequency and for high-speed resonant tunneling devices
