Abstract :
The authors report the fabrication of a GaAs Gunn-effect structure with three Au¿Ge¿Ni ohmic contacts. The device has shown useful pulse-regeneration gain, together with good reflection insensitivity, and can be considered a useful structure for gigapulse-per-second communication systems.
