Resistive Schottky barrier gate microwave switch

摘要

A Schottky barrier resistive gate switch which may be utilized for microwave switching. First and second metallizations which serve as signal inputs overlie a semiconductive substrate, making contact with a doped region thereof. A gate of high resistivity material which forms a Schottky barrier with the substrate is positioned between the metallizations. The doped region defines a channel, the conductivity of which is adjusted by the regulation of the Schottky depletion region formed therein.
