摘要
The nonlinear theory of generation in a resonant tunneling diode is developed for a frequency range of omega < Gamma, where Gamma is the width of the resonant level. This frequency interval is usually implemented in experiments. The generation power of a resonant tunneling diode is calculated analytically as a function of the pumping current and the diode parameters. It is demonstrated that there exists no limitation on the generation power. The soft and hard generation regimes as well as hysteresis phenomena are predicted.
