The design and analysis of a 350 GHz wide band beam-lead varistor quadrupler

Abstract

This paper discusses the techniques used to design a 300 GHz to 400 GHz integrated beam-lead varistor quadrupler. Nonlinear simulations were performed to calculate the optimum diode embedding impedance and the required input power. A finite-element analysis program (HFSS) was used to design the matching network.
