Current fluctuations in double-barrier quantum well resonant tunneling diodes
The measurements of the spectral intensity of the current fluctuations in double-barrier quantum well resonant tunneling diodes as a function of temperature and bias current are reported. Two types of devices were studied: one with AlAs barriers and GaAs well and contact regions, and the other has Alo,,Gae,As barriers. The frequency range covered is 1 Hz-100 kHz and the temperature range is 78-...
متن کاملAntimonide-based pN terahertz mixer diodes
High frequency pN heterojunction diodes with cutoff frequencies over 1 THz have been fabricated using narrow bandgap high-mobility semiconductors. The pN heterojunction is composed of a 30 nm thick p-type In0.27Ga0.73Sb alloy and a 130 nm thick In0.69Al0.31As0.41Sb0.59 n-layer. A high-mobility n-type InAs0.66Sb0.34 contact layer is used to connect the mesa diode to a metal Ohmic contact. These ...
متن کاملAn Heterojunction Schottky Barrier Diode with RTD Emitter
The possible application of Schottky diodes as detector elements in receivers and image sensing systems operating in the THz frequency range has been demonstrated in the literature. In addition to metal-semiconductor (M-S) Schottky diodes, the use of heterojunction Schottky barrier diodes for detection and mixing applications has also been explored. Such diodes require lower d.c. bias voltages,...
متن کامل2.5-THz GaAs Monolithic Membrane-Diode Mixer
A novel GaAs monolithic membrane-diode (MOMED) structure has been developed and implemented as a 2.5-THz Schottky diode mixer. The mixer blends conventional machined metallic waveguide with micromachined monolithic GaAs circuitry to form, for the first time, a robust, easily fabricated, and assembled room-temperature planar diode receiver at frequencies above 2 THz. Measurements of receiver per...
متن کاملSimulation of a Neutron Detector for Real Time Imaging Applications
Monte Carlo Method is used to simulate a double layer gadolinium-amorphous silicon thermal neutron detector. The detector fabricated in pixel array configuration has various applications including neutron imaging. According to the simulation results, a detector consisting of a gadolinium (Gd) film with thickness of 2-4 ~m, sandwiched properly with two layers of sufficiently thick (-30 ?µm) hydr...
