Abstract

We report monolithic array oscillators incorporating Schottky-collector resonant tunnel diodes (SRTD's). In the SRTD, a 0.1-μm width Schottky collector contact provides a greatly reduced device series resistance, resulting in an estimated 2.2 THz maximum frequency of oscillation. A 64-element oscillator array oscillated at 650 GHz while a 16-element array produced 28 μW at 290 GHz.
