Design guidelines for terahertz mixers and detectors

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 2005
Twin-slot antennas and coplanar waveguides are a popular choice for coupling signals to state-of-the-art mixers and detectors at terahertz frequencies. Although these sensors show promising performance in terms of noise temperature, they usually also show a considerable downward shift in the center frequency of their spectral response, especially when ...

Carbon Nanotube Terahertz Detector

Nano Letters, 2014
Terahertz (THz) technologies are promising for diverse areas such as medicine, bioengineering, astronomy, environmental monitoring, and communications. However, despite decades of worldwide efforts, the THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum still continues to be elusive for solid state technology. Here, we report on the development of a powerless,

Metamaterial based terahertz detector

2011 International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves, 2011
We present a metamaterial based terahertz (THz) detector. The detector design, which combines metamaterials and MEMs, is frequency selective, and we have fabricated and tested detectors at 95 GHz and 693 GHz with noise equivalent powers of 1.13 × 10−8 W/√Hz and 2.96 × 10−8 W/√Hz and responsivities of 16,500 V/W and 6,800 V/W, respectively. These values

Inexpensive detector for terahertz imaging

Applied Optics, 2007
Glow discharge plasma, derived from direct-current gas breakdown, is investigated in order to realize an inexpensive terahertz (THz) room-temperature detector. Preliminary results for THz radiation show that glow discharge indicator lamps as room-temperature detectors yield good responsivity and noise-equivalent power.

Many-body effects on terahertz quantum well detectors

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2009
Many-body effects have been investigated in the design of terahertz quantum well photon detectors. A large discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental photoresponse peak positions exist without considering the many-body interactions.

Broadband terahertz imaging with highly sensitive silicon CMOS detectors

open access: yesOptics Express, 2011
This paper investigates terahertz detectors fabricated in a low-cost 130 nm silicon CMOS technology. We show that the detectors consisting of a nMOS field effect transistor as rectifying element and an integrated bow-tie coupling antenna achieve a record

Terahertz sources and detectors

SPIE Proceedings, 2005
Through the support of the US Army Research Office we are developing terahertz sources and detectors suitable for use in the spectroscopy of chemical and biological materials as well as for use in imaging systems to detect concealed weapons. Our technology relies on nonlinear diodes to translate the functionality achieved at microwave frequencies to ...

Solid State Rectifier as Terahertz Detector

2018 AEIT International Annual Conference, 2018
We present a new solid state rectifier, compatible with CMOS integrated circuit, suitable to direct conversion of terahertz radiation, at room temperature. The structure creates a rectenna, consists in a truncated conical helix extruded from a planar spiral and connected to a nanometric metallic whisker at one of its edges. The whisker reaches the gate
