Abstract
A resonance circuit of a transmission line and a capacitor is connected to the base circuit of a transistor. The transmission line is shorter than one-quarter wavelength to make the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit higher than the frequency of a second harmonic. As a result, the angle of the reflection coefficient of the second harmonic when an input matching circuit side is viewed from the input terminal of the transistor ranges from 170° to 270° on a polar chart, and phase difference between the fundamental wave of the base current and the second harmonic decreases.
