Abstract
Single-drift flat-profile GaAs IMPATT diodes were designed for CW operation in the 140 GHz range. The diodes were fabricated from MBE grown material, mounted on diamond heatsinks and tested in a radial line full height waveguide cavity. An RF output power of 15 mW with a corresponding DC to RF conversion efficiency of 1.5% was obtained at 135.3 GHz.
