Practical Terahertz Electronics: Devices and Applications, Volume 1 Solid-state devices and vacuum tubes 1st Edition – PDF/EPUB Version Downloadable

This research
and reference text provides a comprehensive and authoritative survey of the
state-of-the-art in terahertz electronics research. Covering the fundamentals,
operational principles, and theoretical aspects of the field, the book equips
the reader to take the practical steps involved in the fabrication of devices
that work in the terahertz frequency range. Volume one focuses on solid-state
devices and vacuum tubes, discussing Schottky, MIM, self-switching, geometric,
resonant tunneling, IMPATT and Gunn diodes, HBTs, MOSFETs, and HEMTs, as well
as traveling wave tubes, backward wave oscillators, gyrotrons and free electron
lasers. Intended for researchers and professionals in the field, this text will
be an essential reference for anyone working at the cutting edge of terahertz
electronics.
