Phase-locking of an InP/InGaP/InGaAs resonant tunneling diode relaxation oscillator by direct optical injection
Optical-injection locking of an InP based resonant tunneling diode relaxation oscillator is demonstrated. The diode is an Al-free InP/InGaP/InGaAs structure. The characteristics of the fundamental oscillating line and its harmonic, including their phase noise are reported.
