Abstract :
As a part of an Electronics Technology and Devices Laboratory internal effort, a novel subharmonically pumped mixer using planar doped barrier (PDB) diodes has been designed and fabricated. It adopts a configuration which is used primarily to optimize the MBE grown PDB diodes. A conversion loss, in the order of 6 dB has been achieved using a 1.2 GHz local oscillator and a signal frequency of 2.0 GHz.
