Abstract
A parametric amplifier having a beam lead dual Schottky barrier diode fabricated on a single semiconductor chip across a waveguide cavity. Two anode leads are bonded to the adjacent waveguide walls for coupling to a pump source; and a common cathode lead is bonded to a signal circuit. Parasitic reactances are reduced by minimizing stray capacitance and beam lead series inductance.
