Abstract
The saturated electron velocity in GaAs is determined at 100 and 150 °C from a comparison of measured and calculated small‐signal impedance of IMPATT devices. The results are in good agreement with the values obtained by extrapolating Gunn effect theoretical calculations at higher fields, while the values used in previously published IMPATT design work were too high.Keywords
