Abstract :
New high sensitive zero-bias Schottky detector diodes with low junction capacitance and differential resistance are characterized by applying DC and S-parameter measurements in W-band. The extracted parameters provide an accurate RF model for circuit simulations to design and realize an impedance matching network at 90 GHz to avoid standing waves in a diode detector as an essential part of high sensitive direct detection receivers.
