Abstract
Most large-signal analyses of IMPATT diodes neglect the diffusion of charge carriers in the drift region. A correction can be introduced to include the effect of diffusion in the negative conductance or the efficiency of the IMPATT diode calculated from such analyses. An approximate method of estimating a simple correction factor is presented using the Read model of the diode.
