Abstract

We report on a semiconductor superlattice oscillator for generation of millimeter waves (frequency 65 GHz). The main element of the oscillator is a doped short-period GaAs/AlAs superlattice with negative differential conductance. The oscillator is due to current oscillations caused by charge density domains. The oscillator delivered, at an efficiency of 0.2% for the conversion of electrical power to radiation power, a power of 100 mu W in a bandwidth of the order of 200 kHz.
