Abstract

We numerically demonstrate a possibility on-off keying (OOK) type of modulation over tens gigabits per second for sub-terahertz radiation in our proposed wireless transmitter device structure towards radio over fiber (RoF) technology. The integrated device consists of an InP-based compound semiconductor resonant tunneling diode (RTD) adjacent to an InP-based photo diode (PD), a self-complementary type of bow-tie antenna (BTA), external microstrip lines. These integration structures are carefully designed to obtain robust relaxation oscillation (RO) due to the negative differential conductance (NDC) characteristic of the RTD and the nonlinearity of the NDC. Moreover, the device is designed to exhibit OOK modulation of RO due to photo current from the PD inject into the RTD. Electromagnetic simulations and nonlinear equivalent circuit model of the whole device structure are established to perform large signal analysis numerically with considerations of previously measured characteristics of the triple-barrier RTD.
