Delay structures with planar Gunn devices
A pulse delay obtained with the aid of the domain travelling effect in Gunn devices is described. For this purpose, the planar Gunn devices contain, in addition to a trigger electrode, a capacitive electrode for coupling out the signal. Experimental results are given for the single component and a monolithic integrated cascade circuit. The devices are appropriate for constructing dynamic shift registers in the sub-nanosecond range.
