摘要
A fast convolution-based computational approach is employed to integrate numerical solid-state device simulation with nonlinear millimeter-wave circuit simulation. Unlike pre,previous combined harmonic-balance/deviee approaches, the high-frequency circuit/physical device response is allowed to evolve in time to its natural steady-state mode of operation, permitting insight into harmonic and parametric energy exchange, stability, load pulling, and frequency tuning effects. To demonstrate this computationally efficient approach, a secund-harmonic 150-GHz transferred electron oscillator is simulated using both conventional Gunn and novel stable-depletion-layer InP devices. The integrated det;device/circuit simulations in the time domain enable us to investigate the formation and buildup of the oscillation modes in detail.
