Abstract(in English) A THz range is a frequency region from 300GHz to 10THz and many applications are expected for wireless communications, imagings, and so on. A resonant tunneling diode (RTD) is one of electron devices which can operate in the THz range. In 2010, an InGaAs/AlAs double-barrier (DB) RTD with 1.04THz of oscillating frequency at room temperature has been reported. On the other hand, there is no report about device physics for ultimate performance of RTD. Therefore, for discussing ultimate performance of RTDs, we derive a nonlinear equivalent circuit of triple-barrier (TB) RTD and the equivalent circuit is verified that adjusting the equivalent circuit to small-signal measurement. And we clarify bias-voltage dependency of equivalent circuit parameters by using particle swarm optimization method.
