Abstract :
During last decade the number of microwave applications augmented in an impressive manner. So, design libraries must include device models more and more versatile. In our presentation we will describe the endeavour undertaken at XLIM laboratory (formerly IRCOM laboratory), in the area of the modelling and characterization of semiconductor microwave devices in order to develop accurate models for the design of modern microwave applications.
