  • Abstract
    The design and fabrication of a GaAs varactor diode for u.h.f. t.v. tuners were carried out using a GaAs double epitaxial layer. The capacitance ratio of diode. C3/C25, is 6.0 and the series resistance at 470 MHz is 0.24 ¿. These characteristics are much better than those of an Si diode and well satisfy the requirements for t.v. tuners.
