A comprehensive study on mm-wave and THz properties of IMPATT devices and their optical modulation has been presented in this book. High frequency performance limiting factors such as avalanche response, tunneling, series resistance, etc. have been studied for mm-wave and THz IMPATTs. Finally a quantum drift-diffusion model has been proposed for obtaining more accurate design of IMPATT devices at higher mm-wave and THz frequencies.
