  • Abstract
    Transmission type diode switches were constructed with Ge silver-bonded diodes biased in the avalanche conditions. Several types of attenuation versus bias voltage characteristic were observed. One of the switches gave an insertion loss of 0.6 dB and an isolation of 30.8 dB for input power of -10 dBm at 46.6 GHz.
