Background
Schottky diodes are the main non-linear semiconductor devices used in frequency doubling and mixing circuits. The conventional Schottky diode structure sequentially comprises a metal anode, an N-type semiconductor channel region, a semiconductor heavily doped region and a metal cathode from top to bottom. To improve the power-withstanding capability of the schottky diode, the length of the channel region should be increased to increase the breakdown voltage. However, the undepleted N-type region has a large parasitic resistance because the depletion region width is always smaller than the channel region length. The longer the channel region, the greater the resistance. This parasitic resistance affects the operating cut-off frequency of the device and is also a major factor in the dissipation of energy.
