Abstract :
The MESFET as an optical detector has been explored in recent years. The main disadvantage of that kind of detector is it´s poor response at high frequencies. This paper presents a method to improve the response at high frequencies by applying resonance techniques. Theoretical analysis as well as experimental results are presented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.<>
