Title :
Noise in Microwave Transmission Applications of Gunn and IMPATT Diodes -- On the Circuit-Device Interface in IMPATT-Diode Applications

Vlaardingerbroek, M.T.
Abstract :
The avalanche process in an IMPATT-diode is inherently noisy. On the other hand the IMPATT-diode has the highest C.W. power capabilities, compared with the other active solid-state microwave devices. Therefore, several applications can only be realized using IMPATT-devices and must be designed in such a way that the noise is acceptable.
