Abstract :
The integration of Schottky diode submillimetre wave circuits on GaAs membranes, and the transfer of the circuit to a lower dielectric membrane substrate is discussed. Two 366GHz mixers were designed to demonstrate the membrane approach using post processing of commercial foundry processed wafers.
