  • Abstract
    A simple calculation is given for the amplitude fluctuations and their bandwidth of a Read diode oscillator operating at intermediate power levels. Application of the model to a typical GaAs diode yields a noise-to-signal ratio, -138 dB, which agrees with recent measurements on abrupt vapor-grown junctions.
