A double Schottky-barrier diode includes a semi-insulating substrate, a left mesa formed by growth and etching on the semi-insulating substrate, a middle mesa formed by growth and etching on the semi-insulating substrate, a right mesa formed by growth and etching on the semi-insulating substrate, two anode probes and two air-bridge fingers. The two Schottky contacts are closely fabricated on the same mesa (middle mesa) in a back-to-back manner to obtain even symmetric C-V characteristics and odd symmetric I-V characteristics from the device level. The output of a frequency multiplier fabricated using the double Schottky-barrier diode only has odd harmonics, but no even harmonics, which is suitable for the production of high-order frequency multipliers. The cathodes of the two Schottky contacts are connected by the buffer layer without ohmic contact.
