## Abstract In this article, we will demonstrate a low local oscillator (LO) power K‐band mixer based on a tunneling diode technology. Due to its unique diode characteristics, no DC supply is needed, whereas an LO power as low as −2 dBm is required for nominal functionality. The energy‐efficient MM
