  • Abstract
    Temperature and electric field profiles are considered for TRAPATT structures in the nonoscillatory state. Two specific device structures (1 and 6 GHz) are compared and their geometrical limitations on diamond heat sinks are shown to be similar. The effects of space charge and large temperature drops across the active layer are also considered.
