  • Abstract
    Monolithic integrated IMPATT diodes are combined with coplanar waveguide resonator on unthinned silicon wafers to form simple oscillators for mm-wave operation (around 90 GHz). This paper describes properties of planar IMPATTs, their integration into SIMMWICs and proves their basics functionality as mW power sources for simple cost effective and flexible mm-wave systems.
