Using silicon planar diodes in a coaxial cavity that closely approximates to- Evans's TRAPATT circuit, microwave power up to the fourth harmonic has been extracted efficiently with a very low subharmonic content. The efficiency at the fundamental (1 GHz) and the third harmonic (3 GHz) were almost identical at 35% and 34%, respectively.
