Abstract
1. The diodes of n+-n-n+ with tunnel or resonance-tunnel scopes possess negative differential conductivity (ODP) because of tunneling or resonance tunneling of electrons through the lateral scopes of diodes is showed. 2 The n+-n-n+ diodes with tunnel or resonance-tunnel scopes can be fabricated in a co-planar and in «sandwich» structures is showed. 3. I – V characteristics of n+-n-n+ diodes are analyzed taking into account tunnel or resonance-tunnel is have been analyzed. The region of negative differential conductivity is determined by parameters of tunnel and resonance-tunnel scopes, material of operating diode region and geometry of structure. 4. Large non-linearity of I – V characteristics of considered diodes at small bias voltage can be used for frequency multiplication in millimeter wave range.
