摘要: Monolithic diode grids have been fabricated on 2-cm square gallium-arsenide wafers with 1600 Schottky-barrier varactor diodes. Shorted diodes are detected a liquid-crystal technique, and the bad removed an ultrasonic probe. A small-aperture reflectometer that uses wavefront division interference was developed to measure reflection coefficient of grids. Phase shift 70 degrees 7-dB loss obtained at 93 GHz when bias grid changed from -3 V 1 V. simple transmission-line model, together measured low-frequency parameters for diodes, shown predict performance over entire capacitive range as well complete reactive tuning provided by reflector behind grid, wide frequencies form 33 141 GHz.
