150 GHz Complementary Anti-Parallel Diode Frequency Tripler in 130 nm CMOS

The first complementary anti-parallel Schottky diode frequency tripler in CMOS is demonstrated. The tripler exhibits
$\sim {34}\mathchar"702D {\rm dB}$
minimum conversion loss,
$-24 \mathchar"702D {\rm dBm}$
maximum output power at 150 GHz, and 3 db output frequency range of
$\sim {10}~{\rm GHz}$
