A D-Band Frequency-Doubling Traveling-Wave Amplifier Through Monolithic Integration of a SiC SIW and GaN HEMTs

We report a solid-state traveling-wave amplifier (TWA) realized through monolithic integration of transistors with a SiC substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW). The TWA uses a stepped-impedance microstrip line as the input divider, but a low-loss, high-power-capacity SIW as the output combiner. The in...
