We propose a continuation of our experimental and numerical studies of          2-terminal InP transferred electron devices (TED) into the regime where         the devices have lengths less than 1.0 micron.  Experimentally, we will         measure the:  1) pulsed and cw pre and post-threshold current-voltage           characteristics; 2) oscillatory response at frequencies between 100 and         150 Ghz; 3) amplification behavior at these frequencies; 4)                     temperature, bias and circuit dependence of these phenomena.                    Numerically, we will simulate the data via a direct solution of the             Boltzmann transport equation.  The research will impact the areas of            hot electron injection, high frequency microwave devices, metal                 semiconductor contacts, and transport in sub-micron structures.
