A new mixer has been built, using a planar GaAs Schottky-barrier diode, for operation at frequencies around 100 GHz. The mixer has low noise temperature and conversion loss and low local oscillator power requirement. The design is such that construction of scaled versions should he possible for operation up to 200 GHz.
