Tunable submillimeter-wave generator is layered (AI/Ga)As device. Frequencies adjusted via applied voltages. New device concept offers potential to make relatively compact, efficient local oscillators for heterodyne mixers in submillimeter radar and imaging systems, nondestructive testing, diagnosis of plasmas, airborne spectroscopy of atmosphere, detection of weapons and other contraband, and communications.
