A Gunn diode, also known as a transferred electron
device (TED), is a form of diode, a two-
terminal passive semiconductor electronic component,
with negative resistance, used in high-frequency electronics.
 The negative differential resistance,
combined with the timing properties of
the intermediate layer, is responsible
for the diode's largest use: in electronic
oscillators at microwave frequencies
and above. A microwave oscillator can
be created simply by applying
a DC voltage to bias the device into its
negative resistance region.
The TED devices include Gunn diode, LSA diode and
Inp diode. Here electron transfer from lower conduction
valley to the upper satellite valley.
 It is not having any junction or gate, it is a bulk
type of device.

It is fabricated from compound semiconductor

such as GaAS and Inp.

It operates with high energy "hot" electrons

 Applications: L,S,C,X band
amplifier and oscillators, RF
transmitter, Radar systems

Advantages: Low noise, high gain,

low power, reliable, lighter in
weight
