High-frequency voltage noise of nanometric Schottky-barrier diodes and heterostructure barrier varactor in cyclostationary conditions

Abstract

In this contribution we propose an analytical approach for the calculation of the high-frequency noise spectrum of frequency multipliers based on n + n − metal Schottky-barrier diodes and n + n − barrier − nn + Heterostructure-barrier varactors. The model includes a diodes operating in series with a parallel resonant circuit to extract the harmonics generated in the terahertz frequency region.
