摘要
The impedance of GaAs p-i-n diodes under forward bias is modeled using the two-dimensional simulation program PISCES. The capacitance and resistance, representing the parallel equivalent circuit of the diode, are constant over a wide frequency range. The switching transient of the p-i-n diode is also modeled and it is found that switching time is determined by the sweep out time of the carriers and not by the carrier lifetime. © 1990 IEEE
