The p + substrate plays an important role on the edge stability of p + n multiquantum well avalanche transit time devices. The p + n multiquantum well avalanche transit time devices on n + substrate easily burn out along the device edge at low breakdown current. The same structure on p + substrate can have the desired band diagram on device edge to eliminate edge burn‐out and CW operation is thus achieved at 100.3 GHz. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
