Abstract :
In this paper, we demonstrate the operation of a truly planar Gunn diode working as a self-oscillating mixer at millimeter-wave frequency. The Gunn diode was fabricated in a GaAs/Al0.23Ga0.77As layer structure. An initial proof-of-concept prototype yielded a measured conversion loss of around 20±2.5 dB between 30 GHz and 40 GHz.
