  • Abstract
    A fully planar monolithically integrated Gunn oscillator for 35 GHz has been constructed on a GaAs substrate. An output power of about 1.5 mW, corresponding to an efficiency of 0.5%, is obtained from the oscillator in its present unoptimised form. The device is intended for use as a local oscillator in integrated millimetre-wave receivers. Measurements are made by means of quasi-optical output coupling.
