Abstract :
We present, for the first time, the fabrication process for a submicron planar Gunn diode in In0.53Ga0.47As on an InP substrate operating at 265 GHz. A novel two stage lift off method has been developed to achieve a submicron gaps between contacts down to 135 nm with widths up to 120 μm.
