Abstract :
A variable capacitance germanium junction diode has been developed for parametric subharmonic oscillators in ultra-high speed computers. A figure of merit, including the capacitance-voltage sensitivity, is proposed which relates the diode parameters to the performance expected in this circuit and which is helpful in the choice of diode impurity distribution.
