A high-harmonic Large Orbit Gyrotron and a low-voltage gyrotrino placed inside a spectrometer cryomagnet enable greatly simplify terahertz systems for magneto-resonance spectrometers. Large Orbit Gyrotrons provide a powerful third-harmonic generation at frequencies of 1 THz and 0.394 THz in pulsed and CW regimes, respectively, at significantly lower magnetic fields than conventional gyrotrons. According to simulations the gyrotrino with the voltage of 1.5 kV and frequency of 0.264 THz can generate a power of tens of watts; a possibility to operate at such a low voltage is demonstrated in the existing gyrotron with three-electrode magnetron-injection gun.

This paper presents a 2.5-GHz low-voltage, high-efficiency CMOS power amplifier (PA) IC in 0.18-µm CMOS technology. The combination of a dual-switching transistor (DST) and a third harmonic tuning technique is proposed. The DST effectively improves the gain at the saturation power region when the additional gain extension of the secondary switching transistor compensates for the gain compression of the primary one. To achieve high-efficiency performance, the third harmonic tuning circuit is connected in parallel to the output load. Therefore, the flattened drain current and voltage waveforms are generated, which in turn reduce the overlapping and the dc power consumption significantly. In addition, a 0.5-V back-gate voltage is applied to the primary switching transistor to realize the low-voltage operation. At 1 V of supply voltage, the proposed PA has achieved a power added efficiency (PAE) of 34.5% and a saturated output power of 10.1 dBm.
