The Gunn-diode: fundamentals and fabrication

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

A short tutorial on the Gunn diode is presented. The principles underlying Gunn oscillations are discussed briefly and illustrated by relevant simulations. The simulation of a typical Gunn diode in a cavity is also presented. In conclusion, the fabrication process of low-power Gunn diodes is discussed.
