High Efficiency HBV Multipliers for Millimetre Wave Generation

• We describe the heterostructure barrier varactor (HBV) diode and its application in frequency multipliers. Different material systems and HBV models are described. In a frequency tripler experiment a maximum output power of 7.1 mW was generated at 221 GHz with a flange-to-flange efficiency of 7.9%.
