Abstract
This paper demonstrates the capability of resonant tunneling diodes as microwave and millimeter-wave video detectors. In Ka Band an open circuit voltage sensitivity of 1750 mV/mW is measured. The detector properties are found to be a strong function of diode bias and the measmed tangential signal sensitivity and dynamic range are found to be smaller than existing devices.
