Abstract :
The unequal ionization rates reported for holes and electrons in GaAs have been used to calculate the small-signal admittance for a complimentary p-type IMPATT diode. For the uniformly doped n and p device structures considered, the p-type structure is found to have significantly increased negative conductance.
