A two stage microwave hybrid integrated distributed amplifier with a gain of 7 ± 1 dB and a noise figure better than 5.2 dB in the 0.2–11 GHz band and better than 3 dB in the 7.5–11 GHz subband is reported. The amplifier ...

A modelling procedure is presented for MESFETs with both electrical and optical inputs. First a physical model is introduced for the illuminated MESFET. The actual circuit model with electrical and optical variables is ...

A new approach us presented utilizing low-noise distributed amplification based on a hybrid integration technology, This way eight-octave bandwidth has been achieved with a responsivity characteristics flat from 40 MHz up ...

The paper discusses the application of harmonic-balance (HB) techniques to the analysis of optical injection locking of microwave FET oscillators. HB methods are first extended to cover the case of a circuit excited by a ...
