McqMate

Q.	The mode of operation in which the Gunn diode is not stable is:
A.	gunn oscillation mode
B.	limited space charge accumulation mode
C.	stable amplification mode
D.	bias circuit oscillation mode
Answer» A. gunn oscillation mode
Explanation: in gunn oscillation mode, the device is unstable due to the formation of accumulation layer and field domain. this high field domain moves from cathode to anode.
