Abstract In our pursuit of high-power terahertz (THz) wave generation, we propose innovative edge-terminated single-drift region (SDR) multi-quantum well (MQW) impact avalanche transit time (IMPATT) structures based on the Al x Ga 1− N/GaN/Al N material system, with a fixed Aluminum mole fraction = 0.3. Two distinct MQW diode configurations, namely p + -n junction-based and Schottky barrier structures, are investigated for their THz potential. To enhance reverse breakdown characteristics, employ mesa etching nitrogen ion-implantation edge termination, mitigating issues related to premature soft breakdown. The performance is comprehensively evaluated through steady-state high-frequency characterizations using self-consistent quantum drift-diffusion (SCQDD) model. Our proposed 0.3 0.7 diodes, as GaN-based 3C-SiC/Si/3C-SiC MQW-based double-drift (DDR) IMPATT simulated. in diodes significantly reduces device series resistance, enhancing peak continuous power output approximately 300 mW DC conversion efficiency nearly 13% at 1.0 THz. Noise analysis reveals that within zone mitigate noise, improving overall performance.

Thermistor resistance ~14 times initial observed owing negative large coefficient (TCR) −0.32%/K also treatment, leading improved responsivity ~4.5 from devices untreated thermistors. However, this does not improve noise equivalent power (NEP), due increased flicker noise. Microstructural analyses transmission electron microscopy (TEM), diffraction (TED) energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) confirm formation (TiOx) semiconducting phase (~85% purity) deposited initially, further Formation TiOx during annealing could minimize narrow effect, which we reported previously metal wires, enhancement responsivity.

A novel bilateral impact-ionization-avalanche-transit-time (BIMPATT) diode based on AlGaN/GaN two-dimensional electron gas is proposed in this article. The BIMPATT compatible with the available GaN high mobility transistor (HEMT) manufacturing process and has a shorter actual transit distance than existing HEMT-like IMPATT (HIMPATT) diodes. Compared same-sized HIMPATT, optimum frequency of rises from 320 to 420 GHz possesses far wider operating band, especially near 0.9 THz range. maximum DC-RF conversion efficiency 12.9% 17.6%. RF power 3.18 W/mm, which similar 3.12 W/mm HIMPATT. Furthermore, our simulation demonstrated that characteristics are significantly affected by length anode thickness AlGaN barrier layer. effects ohmic contact resistance background impurities also taken into account. This paper provides reference for design enhancement lateral devices.
