| A limiting factor of GaAs Schottky diodes used as mixers in heterodyne receivers is their high intrinsic noise when compared to SIS or HEB devices. This work presents results on the numerical optimization of fundamental Schottky diode mixers, results which predict a significant improvement in the noise performance of current Schottky mixer technology in the THz band. The optimization of the Schottky mixers has been carried out by using a Monte Carlo model of the diode coupled to a multi-tone harmonic balance technique, which describes accurately the electron transport in the diode at the THz band | |
