Abstract

A wideband small-scale cavity oscillator includes a single resonating chamber, a negative resistance diode, at least one capacitive waveguide obstacle, and a tap. The single resonating chamber includes a length, width, and height. The length is greater than the width and height. The negative resistance diode is centrally disposed in the single resonating chamber, and the at least one capacitive waveguide obstacle is disposed in the single resonating chamber. The tap is disposed along the length of the single resonating chamber. A method of manufacturing a wideband small-scale cavity oscillator is provided, which includes providing a single resonating chamber including a length, width, and height, disposing a negative resistance diode centrally in the single resonating chamber, disposing at least one capacitive waveguide obstacle in the single resonating chamber, and disposing a tap along the length of the single resonating chamber.
