The active device considered is a GaAs Dual-Gate MESFET with submicrometer gate length. The frequency range of the output signal is from 1 up to 21 GHz, for an input frequency between .1 and 1 GHz. As a typical result, a higher multiplication factor value up to 200 has been obtained and a maximum output frequency of 40 GHz has been observed. Consequently, two main applications can be proposed: - first: as a broadband comb-generator - second: as a very simple crystal controlled high frequency generator.","PeriodicalId":177448,"journal":{"name":"1985 15th European Microwave Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134360226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two identical receivers are included for co- and cross-polarized signal reception. A linescanner using a flat mirror has also been built. A rotating speed of 600 rpm gives a scanrate of 20 scans/second using both sides of the mirror.","PeriodicalId":177448,"journal":{"name":"1985 15th European Microwave Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130910739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
