Harmonic mixing using self-oscillating signal of a resonant-tunneling-diode oscillator operating in the 900 GHz range
We observed a beat signal between the injection signal and the self-oscillating signal of a resonant-tunneling-diode (RTD) oscillator operating at 906 GHz. This was achieved through harmonic mixing utilizing the nonlinearity of the RTD. By the spectra obtained for various injection frequencies, we estimated the harmonic injection locking range without the need for a bulky heterodyne mixer.
