Abstract

Electron transport in n+-n-n+ GaN structures is simulated by Monte Carlo Particle technique. The peculiarities of Gunn effect in GaN are discussed. The microwave power generation in parallel resonant circuit is simulated. It is shown that GaN offers the potential to generate microwave powers over 100 mW at terahertz frequencies.
