Abstract :
When used as a frequency-mixing element, the tunnel diode has a performance which is superior in certain respects to that of existing mixer diodes at both u.h.f. and higher frequencies. The paper gives a brief outline of mixer theory and considers its application to the tunnel diode. The results of the analysis are compared with those of other authors, and the experimental results so far achieved are reviewed.
