Design and characterization of a SiC Schottky diode mixer
In this paper we present the work on a single balanced mixer with 4H-SiC Schottky diodes. DC and RF measurements are given for the circuit. The circuit gave a minimum conversion loss of 6.7 dB at 10 to 15 dBm LO input power. The conversion loss was below 10 dB for 0.7 to 1.4 GHz for a LO input power of 15 dBm.
