Abstract :
Electron saturation velocity is determined from the space charge resistance Rc and microwave impedance Zd of GaAs IMPATT diodes under linear conditions. Comparison between experimental measurement and theory is used in a large frequency bandwidth (2-18 GHz) at different temperatures (T\n\n\t\t
