  • Abstract
    Under suitable loading conditions, the injection of low-power RF signals is able to trigger self-sustaining coherent Gunn oscillations in GaAs samples. Experimentally, RF triggering was achieved by injected signals as weak as 48 dB below the output power. The triggering mechanism is briefly discussed.
