Abstract
It is likely that the excess material surrounding the tin contact in conventional Gunn diodes could adversely affect the efficiency. This material was removed from two samples in stages, altering the aspect ratio of the Gunn layer eventually by a factor of about 3. It was found that in both cases marked increases in efficiency were produced.
