This is because their critical dimensions are small compared to the wavelength, and the output power scales as the square of the wavelength. We present a vacuum tube technology, where the device size is inherently larger than the operating wavelength. We designed a low–voltage mm–wave source, with an output interaction circuit based on a spherical sector cavity. This device was configured as a phased-locked frequency multiplier. We report the design and cold test results of a proof-of-principle fifth harmonic frequency multiplier with an output frequency of 57.12 GHz.
