Observation of the current and voltage waveforms of the Si IMPATT diode

TL;DR: In this paper, the Si IMPATT diode was observed directly by means of the oscillating circuit using microstrip line, and the results indicate that the conventional small-signal theory cannot be applied to the observed type of oscillation.
