  • Abstract
    A simple design to increase the output power of Gunn diodes used for high frequency generation is to incorporate multiple transit regions into a single device. The Monte Carlo simulations described here predict that the power attainable from the Gunn diodes increases linearly with the square of the number of transit regions
