Several realizations have already demonstrated the ability of GFETs to compete with, or even improve, state-of-the-art mixers based on traditional technologies. Nonetheless, a systematic analysis of the influence on performance of both circuit design and technological aspects has not been conducted yet. In this work, we present a comprehensive assessment of the conver-sion losses by means of applying radio-frequency circuit design techniques in terms of filtering and match-ing, along with the impact stemming from physical and geometric variations of a fabricated graphene technology.}, organization = {Junta de Andalucía P21_00149 ENERGHENE}, organization = {MICIU/AEI/https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 TED2021-129769B-I00 FlexPowHar, TED2021-129938B-I00, PID2023-150162OB-I00}, organization = {European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR}, organization = {FEDER, UE.}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (MCIN) FPU21/04904}, organization = {A-ING-253-UGR23 FEDER Andalucía 2021–2027}, organization = {MCIN/AEI/PTA PTA2020-018250-I}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {graphene field-effect transistor}, keywords = {ambipolar electronics}, keywords = {subharmonic mixing}, keywords = {radio-frequency}, keywords = {large-signal S-parameters}, keywords = {impedance matching}, title = {Comprehensive analysis and exploratory design of graphene-based subharmonic mixers operating at the gigahertz band}, doi = {10.1186/s11671-025-04221-x}, author = {Pardo, Mari Carmen and Pasadas Cantos, Francisco and Medina Rull, Alberto and García Palomo, Mikel and Ortiz Ruiz, Sergio and González Marín, Enrique and Godoy Medina, Andrés and García Ruiz, Francisco Javier}, }
