Abstract
InP Gunn devices on diamond heatsinks yielded RF output power levels (and corresponding DC-to-RF conversion efficiencies) of 34 mW (0.74%) and 25 mW (0.55%) at second-harmonic frequencies of 193 and 199 GHz, respectively. The measured phase noise was well below -94 dBc/Hz at an off-carrier frequency of 500 kHz
