A 60-GHz uniplanar MMIC 4× subharmonic mixer

High‐performance V‐band monolithic quadruple sub‐harmonic mixer with anti‐parallel diode pair

“…This is one of the major causes of conversion-gain reduction. In order to suppress the third component, /4 at f RF Ϫ 2f LO , an open-circuit stub is placed at the end of the APDP [6,7].…”

“…Both model structure [6][7][8][9] and numerical simulation troubleshooting [10] have been addressed; however, the VCO phase noise is not considered, as in the PLL model proposed in [8,11], or taken into account by means of a simplified model [10,[12][13][14].…”

High‐conversion‐gain millimeter‐wave ×4 subharmonic mixer with cascode 4th‐harmonic generator

“…They are known to be less susceptible to photorefractive damage than It:LiNbO 3 waveguide, particularly at wavelengths below 0.8 m [3,4]. Note that the PE waveguides support only the extraordinary polarization [5], whereas Zn-diffused waveguides support random or single polarization, depending upon the process parameters [6]. Zn-diffused LiNbO 3 waveguides can be fabricated by the diffusion of Zn atoms from thin ZnO, vapor Zn, or metallic Zn sources [6].…”

A Novel Circuit Architecture for High Performance of High-order Subharmonic Mixers

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Most of the published papers concentrated on the work of low conversion loss, high isolation and low-order SH mixers. To the best of our knowledge, there are few published references on high-order and wide dynamic range SH mixers.…”
