LT-GaAs-Based Photomixers With >2 mW Peak Output Power Up to 320 GHz

It is shown in this communication that a LT-GaAs photomixer based on an optically resonant cavity is able to generate peak output powers above 2 mW up to 320 GHz when it is driven by optical pulses of 5 ns width at a repetition rate of 10 MHz.
