  1. 1. Integrated VCOs in Gallium Arsenide HEMT technologies with a novel varactor structure

    Author : Mattias Ferndahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design; Oscillator; HEMT; pHEMT; MMIC; VCO; varactor; GaAs; mHEMT;

    Abstract : This thesis presents results on metamorphic and pseudomorpic GaAs HEMT based Voltage Controlled Oscillators and a novel high-Q varactor structure, used in the VCOs, together with a straightforward extraction procedure for the varactors.Theory and fundamentals around LC-oscillators with oscillator criteria, phase noise and different topologies are given as background together with VCO phase noise measurement methods and an overview on device flicker noise; its physical origin and measurement.
