Monolithic integrated circuits incorporating InP-based heterostructure barrier varactors
Résumé
Fully integrated monolithic circuits incorporating InP-based heterostructure barrier varactor (HBV) frequency multipliers have been fabricated via epitaxial liftoff and transfer-substrate techniques onto a quartz substrate. We have obtained a maximum output power of 6 mW at 288 GHz: corresponding to an overall efficiency of 6%. In addition, we have observed a 45-GHz, 3-dB bandwidth centered around 300 GHz for a constant input power of 70 mW.
