Efficiency Assessment of Traditional GaAs and Low-Power InGaAs Schottky Diodes in Full-Band Mixers at 0.3 THz

Efficiency Assessment of Traditional GaAs and Low-Power InGaAs Schottky Diodes in Full-Band Mixers at 0.3 THz

In this paper, we present and compare two different full-band WR3.4 Sub-Harmonic Mixers (SHMs), featuring traditional GaAs and the novel low-barrier InGaAs discrete diodes. In this study, an Active Multiplier Chain (AMC) is used as a Local Oscillator source, which provides peak powers beyond 20 mW....
