Semiconductor Surface Varactor

Bell System Technical Journal, 1962
The semiconductor varactor using surface space charge is analyzed and measurements made on several experimental units are described. The chief characteristics of this device are its capacity-voltage dependence and its negligible dc conduction. The particular system used in this work is a thermally grown oxide on silicon.

High Performance Varactor

open access: yesAdvances in Science and Technology, 2010
A multi-components multi-layer co-fired ceramic varactor with superior performance is here presented. The concept combines a tunable capacitor with optimized properties in a restricted temperature range with PTCR layers to control the overall device temperature. Different prototypes are produced as demonstrator units; one of them is described in detail.

Varactor element and low distortion varactor circuit arrangement

open access: yes, 2007
Varactor element (Dl; D2) having a junction region, in which the depletion capacitance of the varactor element varies when a reverse bias voltage is applied to the varactor element. The varactor element (Dl; D2) has an exponential depletion capacitance- voltage relation, e.g.

Novel heterojunction varactors

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1992
Several varactor structures that have been proposed for millimeter- and submillimeter-wave receiver systems are described, and their performance in a harmonic multiplier is compared. The performance is calculated using a nonlinear large-signal analysis program. >

Transition voltage of AlGaN/GaN heterostructure MSM varactor with two-dimensional electron gas

open access: yesMicroelectronics Reliability, 2017
It is not in principle clear which of the capacitors forming a varactor is responsible for the capacitance change at the transition voltage. We analyzed a theoretical case of transition voltage of the varactor formed by ideal Schottky diodes.

Layout of MOS Varactor with Improved Quality Factor for Cross-Coupled Differential Voltage-Controlled Oscillator Applications

open access: yesElectronics (Switzerland), 2023
In this study, we designed an MOS varactor for application in the differential voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). To improve the quality factor of the MOS varactor, we proposed a symmetric layout technique of the MOS varactor with reduced parasitic ...

Glucose sensing with graphene varactors

2016 IEEE SENSORS, 2016
A novel metal-oxide-graphene glucose sensor is demonstrated. The sensor utilizes a graphene variable capacitor (varactor) structure that has the capability to enable passive, wireless sensing, a key advantage for in vivo glucose sensing. The functionalization of graphene using pyrene boronic acid is demonstrated using a self-assembly process, and ...

Carbon nanotube network varactor

Nanotechnology, 2015
Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) varactors based on a freestanding layer of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films were designed, fabricated and tested. The freestanding SWCNT film was employed as a movable upper patch in the parallel plate capacitor of the MEMS.

Intermodulation distortion in a varactor frequency converter using a diffused-junction varactor

International Journal of Electronics, 1972
Abstract Distortion analysis for varactor frequency converters and parametric amplifiers hitherto restricted to consideration of the ideal abrupt-junction varactor is shown to be capable of extension to more realistic diode models based on polynomial approximations to the appropriate charge/voltage characteristics of the devices.
