Abstract

Experimental results together with computer simulations, provide evidence to support the premise that quantum barrier devices can indeed yield sufficient improvements over conventional Schottky diodes, as to warrant their further study, especially for low-power millimeter and sub-millimeter wave receivers and where local oscillator power is at a premium.
