Optical control of semiconductor devices is a new area, which can be used in several applications. The dynamic behavior of these devices is a crucial problem. Reliable method for its characterization is highly needed. The ...

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 ...

Explicit formulas for the sensitivities of the error corrected reflection coefficient (RC) with respect to the RCs of the calibrating elements, and the invariance of their sum are presented. Under the condition that the ...

The equation f(x, x1, x2, x3)=f(y, y1, y2, y3) is considered that characterizes the relation between the measured reflection coefficient x, the calibrating reflection coefficients x1, x2, x3 and the corresponding values ...

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 ...

Sensitivities of the error-corrected reflection coefficient (rc) with respect to the rc's of the calibrating elements are minimized. A minimum can be found if the rc's of the calibrating elements form a regular triangle ...

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 ...
