Abstract
This paper describes computer simulation results of a novel multilayer PIN diode suitable for the high-power low-frequency application. On the other hand the use of this diode in the microwave region allows one to decrease the DC reverse bias voltage. The novel diode is composed of p+ and n+ semiconductor layers separated by composite intrinsic region n-n-, forming a p+-n-n--n+ structure. It may be considered as a PIN diode
