Difference between gunn diode and pin diode?
gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device
Where gunn diode is used?
Gunn diodes are used in GUNN oscillator over high frequency application. its work on the transfer electron effect TET and the scientist J.B Gunn observe it so the phenomenon is named by gunn effect. the diode are made from GaAs material.because silicon is not suitable low forbidden energy gap 1.21eV only.
What is the Principle and operation characteristic of switching diode?
A: The principle is that is a semiconductor meaning will conduct one way only. A switching diode however will have the least of capacitance across its junction so when it disconnect is faster
What is a semiconductor diode and their application?
It can be either a junction or point contact diode built with semiconductor material. there are many types depending on intended usage.junction diode is produced as described in its name by forming a junction in the semiconductor by using opposite types of dopant impurities.point contact diode is produced as described in its name by taking a semiconductor base and pressing a sharp metal point on its surface.A few of the types of semiconductor diodes are: small signal, power rectifier, zener, tunnel, gunn, etc.
What is Microwave Gunn oscillator?
Gunn oscillators are widely used in the microwave to Terahertz region.This uses a metallic coaxial cavity (in effect, a short length of co-axial cable) to provide the resonant effect which has been modelled earlier as an LC circuit. Although it looks very different, the oscillator shares with a laser the use of a cavity. The size of this cavity determines the time/phase delay which sets the resonant frequency. In this case, each diode induced fluctuation travels up the cavity and reflected from the far end, returning to the diode after a time
What are the characteristics of a Gunn diode?

Difference between gunn diode and pin diode?

What is the disadvantage of gunn diode?
Gunn Diodes are used in high frequency electronics. The advantages are increased efficiency and improved temperature stability while a disadvantage is the Gunn Diode can get burned out.
What are the Principle of operation of the Gunn diode?
by using a suitable diagram, explain the one of the operation in microwave energy sources except Guinn Diode.

Who is John Gunn?
John Gunn is the inventor of the Gunn diode. A link can be found below.
Is Gunn diode a PN junction?
no....is n't
What is the frequency range of gunn diode?
UHF and microwave
Why is a gunn diode called a diode?
A Gunn diode, also known as a transferred electron device (TED), is a form of diode used in high-frequency electronics. It is somewhat unusual in that it consists only of N-doped semiconductor material, whereas most diodes consist of both P and N-doped regions. In the Gunn diode, three regions exist: two of them are heavily N-doped on each terminal, with a thin layer of lightly doped material in between. When a voltage is applied to the device, the electrical gradient will be largest across the thin middle layer. Conduction will take place as in any conductive material with current being proportional to the applied voltage. Eventually, at higher field values, the conductive properties of the middle layer will be altered, increasing its resistivity and reducing the gradient across it, preventing further conduction and current actually starts to fall down. In practice, this means a Gunn diode has a region of negative differential resistance.
Where can you find a gunn diode in home devices?
UHF tuner section of TV or satellite dish demodulator.
What is the Principle and operation characteristic of switching diode?
A: The principle is that is a semiconductor meaning will conduct one way only. A switching diode however will have the least of capacitance across its junction so when it disconnect is faster
Why gunn diode and impatt diode are not common microwave devices?
These are a niche market, and the demand is not particularly high. Designing a Gunn or Impatt oscillator is not a trivial exercise, and the biasing is a pain. These designs are generally built by skilled craftsmen and are not suited to mass production. At 24 GHz or below, a GaAs MESFET or PHEMT is much more practical as an active device.
