3 Positive resistance I I linear V + - Z I=G(V)V slope >0 G: Conductance V Ohm s law : V>0 I 0 Non-linear G (V) 0 Dynamic resistance R>0 Power P diss =v I >0 = losses 3
4 Negative resistance (voltage controlled) I N shape IV V + - Z I=GV I slope<0 slope >0 G: Conductance V Ohm s law : Non-linear V>0 I < 0 G < 0 Dynamic resistance R=1/G <0 Dynamic resistance R<0 Power P diss =v i<0 = GAIN 4
5 Negative resistance (current controlled) I S shape IV I + - Z V=G(I)I I slope>0 G(I) : Conductance slope<0 Ohm s law: I>0 V can be < 0 G(I): <0 Dynamic resistance R=1/G<0 Example: gas tubes V 5
6 Old ways of getting negative resistance With transistors With amp-ops R in =V s /I s = - R 3 (R 1 /R 2 ) A real generator behave like an ideal one, and the generator's entire current will go to the loadz L, whatever the value of Z L andr S. 6
7 Novel ways to get negative resistance Tunnel diodes or Esaki diode These diodes have a heavily doped p-n junction only some 10 nm wide. The heavy doping results in a broken band-gap, where conduction band electron states on the n-side are more or less aligned with valence band hole states on the p-side. A small applied voltage induces the electron tunneling from the n-side conduction band to the p-side valence band. Resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) A resonant tunnel diode (RTD) is a device which uses quantum effects and negative differential resistance (NDR). As an RTD is capable of generating a terahertz wave at room temperature, it can be used in ultra high-speed circuitry. RTDs are formed as a single quantum well structure surrounded by very thin layer barriers. This structure is called a double barrier structure. This structure can be grown to by molecular beam heteroepitaxy. GaAs and AlAs in particular are used to form this structure. AlAs/InGaAs or InAlAs/InGaAs can be used. 7

12 Advantages of new negative resistance devices Reduce circuit complexity Reach terahertz operating frequencies (high speed switching) High frequency bistable or multistable much simpler circuits as relaxation oscillators, single-pulse generators, and sinewave generators. Create multiple-peak current-voltage characteristics allowing functional applications such as multi-state memories... 12
13 Why optoelectronic RTD based devices? Traditionally, the change in the current or electrical field through a pn junction laser diodes, modulators, switches and detectors are imposed by a quite complex drive circuit. Integrating a DBQW-RTD with a laser diode, for example, the light emission can be controlled by the RTD. The DBQW-RTD: is the fastest purely electronic solid state device exhibits Negative Differential resistance (NDR) up to terahertz frequencies can be easily integrated with conventional electronic and optoelectronic devices 13

Electrical control of waveguide optical properties, such as losses/transmission. Possibility of electric field self-oscillation at high frequency due to the gain in the NDR region.
