A Gunn diode is a type of diode that uses the Gunn effect to generate microwave frequencies when a voltage above a threshold is applied. It consists of a single piece of N-type semiconductor like gallium arsenide and has a negative differential resistance region in its current-voltage characteristics that allows it to function as an oscillator. Gunn diodes are used to generate microwave signals from 10 GHz to THz and have applications in radar, sensors, and microwave transmission.
A loop antenna is a radio antenna consisting of a loop or coil of wire, tubing, or other electrical conductor with its ends connected to a balanced transmission line (or possibly a balun). There are two distinct antenna designs: the small loop (or magnetic loop) with a size much smaller than a wavelength, and the much larger resonant loop antenna with a circumference close to the intended wavelength of operation. Small loops have low radiation resistance and thus poor efficiency and are mainly used as receiving antennas at low frequencies. To increase the magnetic field in the loop and thus the efficiency, the coil of wire is often wound around a ferrite rod magnetic core; this is called a ferrite loop antenna. The ferrite loop is the antenna used in many AM broadcast receivers, with the exception of external loops used with AV Amplifier-Receivers and car radios; the antenna is often contained inside the radio's case. These antennas are also used for radio direction finding. In amateur radio, loop antennas are often used for low profile operating where larger antennas would be inconvenient, unsightly.

This fun and visually appealing presentation about the core concept of diodes formation and application is thoroughly researched and concise. It contains fun tit-bits of info that make the concept of depletion layer easy to understand. It has a vibrant color scheme to make a perfect first impression for any project...
I used Mutual Inductance principle in which the two coils of wire are brought into close proximity with each other so the magnetic field from one links with the other, a voltage will be generated in the second coil as a result magnetically-induced voltage only happens when the magnetic field flux is present.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. A Gunn Diode is considered as a type of diode even though it does
not contain any typical PN diode junction like the other diodes, but
it consists of two electrodes.
This diode is also called as a Transferred Electronic Device. This
diode is a negative differential resistance device, which is
frequently used as a low-power oscillator to generate microwaves.
It consists of only N-type semiconductor in which electrons are the
majority charge carriers. To generate short radio waves such as
microwaves, it utilizes the Gunn Effect.
3. 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.
4. It was invented by John Battiscombe Gunn in 1960s; after his
experiments on GaAs (Gallium Arsenide), he observed a noise in
his experiments’ results and owed this to the generation of
electrical oscillations at microwave frequencies by a steady electric
field with a magnitude greater than the threshold value.
It was named as Gunn Effect after this had been discovered by John
Battiscombe Gunn.
The Gunn Effect can be defined as generation of microwave power
(power with microwave frequencies of around a few GHz) whenever
the voltage applied to a semiconductor device exceeds the critical
voltage value or threshold voltage value.
5. Gunn diodes are used to build oscillators for generating
microwaves with frequencies ranging from 10 GHz to THz. It is a
Negative Differential Resistance device – also called as
transferred electron device oscillator – which is a tuned circuit
consisting of Gunn diode with DC bias voltage applied to it.
And, this is termed as biasing the diode into negative resistance
region.
Due to this, the total differential resistance of the circuit becomes
zero as the negative resistance of the diode cancels with the
positive resistance of the circuit resulting in the generation of
oscillations.
6. This diode is made of a single piece of N-type semiconductor such as
Gallium Arsenide and InP (Indium Phosphide). GaAs and some other
semiconductor materials have one extra-energy band in their electronic
band structure instead of having only two energy bands, viz. valence
band and conduction band like normal semiconductor materials.
These GaAs and some other semiconductor materials consist of three
energy bands, and this extra third band is empty at initial stage.
If a voltage is applied to this device, then most of the applied voltage
appears across the active region. The electrons from the conduction
band having negligible electrical resistivity are transferred into the third
band because these electrons are scattered by the applied voltage. The
third band of GaAs has mobility which is less than that of the conduction
band.
7. Because of this, an increase in the forward voltage
increases the field strength (for field strengths where
applied voltage is greater than the threshold voltage value),
then the number of electrons reaching the state at which
the effective mass increases by decreasing their velocity,
and thus, the current will decrease.
Thus, if the field strength is increased, then the drift
velocity will decrease; this creates a negative incremental
resistance region in V-I relationship. Thus, increase in the
voltage will increase the resistance by creating a slice at the
cathode and reaches the anode. But, to maintain a constant
voltage, a new slice is created at the cathode. Similarly, if
the voltage decreases, then the resistance will decrease by
extinguishing any existing slice.
8.
9. The current-voltage relationship characteristics of a Gunn
diode are shown in the above graph with its negative
resistance region. These characteristics are similar to the
characteristics of the tunnel diode.
As shown in the above graph, initially the current starts
increasing in this diode, but after reaching a certain voltage
level (at a specified voltage value called as threshold
voltage value), the current decreases before increasing
again. The region where the current falls is termed as a
negative resistance region, and due to this it oscillates. In
this negative resistance region, this diode acts as both
oscillator and amplifier, as in this region, the diode is
enabled to amplify signals.
10. Used as Gunn oscillators to generate frequencies ranging from 100mW 5GHz to
1W 35GHz outputs. These Gunn oscillators are used for radio communications,
military and commercial radar sources.
Used as sensors for detecting trespassers, to avoid derailment of trains.
Used as efficient microwave generators with a frequency range of up to
hundreds of GHz.
Used for remote vibration detectors and rotational speed
measuring tachometers.
Used as a microwave current generator (Pulsed Gunn diode generator).
Used in microwave transmitters to generate microwave radio waves at very low
powers.
Used as fast controlling components in microelectronics such as for the
modulation of semiconductor injection lasers.
Used as sub-millimeter wave applications by multiplying Gunn oscillator
frequency with diode frequency.
