Title Terahertz communications: a 2020 vision Type Book Chapter
Year 2007 Publication NATO Security through Science Series Abbreviated Journal
Volume 2007 Issue Pages 325-338
Keywords terahertz THz communications
Abstract We discuss basic considerations for potential short-range THz communication systems which may replace or supplement present WLAN systems in 10–15 years from now. On the basis of a few fundamental estimations we show that such a system will need a line-of-sight connection between receiver and emitter. To circumvent the blocking of the direct line-of-sight connection indoor THz communication systems will also have to rely on non-line-of-sight paths which involve reflections off the walls. The reflectivity of the walls can be enhanced by dielectric mirrors. This new scheme makes steerable high-gain antennas a necessity. Hence, a wireless THz communication system can not be a simple extension of the existing technology of today's local area networks. Instead it involves completely new concepts and ideas that have not yet been worked upon.

Title A 120-GHz integrated photonic transmitter Type Conference Article
Year 2000 Publication Proc. International topical meeting on microwave photonics (MWP 2000) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 225 - 228
Keywords THz, teraherts communications, terahertz communication channel, photodiode, transmitter
Abstract A photonics-based 120-GHz transmitter has been developed. A photodiode, a planar antenna and a silicon lens were integrated to form a compact millimeter-wave (MMW) emitter. The MMW signal emitted from the transmitter has been detected with a waveguide-mounted Schottky diode. The received power exceeded 100 μW, which is the highest value ever reported for photonic MMW transmitter at frequencies of >100 GHz

Title High frequency photodiode work in Japan Type Manuscript
Year 2002 Publication Report at NTT photonics laboratories Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1-4
Keywords THz, terahertz communications, photodiode
Abstract The recent progress in the device performance of the uni-traveling-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) is described. The UTC-PD utilizes only electrons as the active carriers, and this unique feature is the key to achieving excellent high-speed and high-output characteristics simultaneously. The achieved performance includes a record 3-dB bandwidth of 310 GHz, high-power photonic millimeter-wave generation with an output power of over +13 dBm at 100 GHz, high-output-voltage photoreceiver operation at bit rates of up to 80 Gbit/s, and demultiplexing operation at 200 Gbit/s using a monolithic PD-EAM optical gate.

Title Полоса и потери преобразования полупроводникового смесителя с фононным каналом охлаждения двумерных электронов Type Journal Article
Year 2010 Publication Физика и техника полупроводников Abbreviated Journal
Volume 44 Issue 11 Pages 1475-1478
Keywords 2DEG, AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures mixers
Abstract Методом субмиллиметровой спектроскопии с высоким временным разрешением измерены температурная и концентрационная зависимости полосы преобразования смесителей терагерцового диапазона AlGaAs/GaAs на разогреве двумерных электронов с фононным каналом их охлаждения. Полоса преобразования на уровне 3 дБ (f3 dB) при 4.2 K при изменении концентрации ns варьируется в пределах 150-250 МГц в соответствии со степенным законом f3 dB propto ns-0.5, что соответствует доминирующему механизму рассеяния на пьезоэлектрических фононах. Минимальное значение коэффициента потерь преобразования полупроводникового смесителя достигается в структурах с высокой подвижностью носителей mu>3·105 см2/В·с при 4.2 K.

Title Low-noise wide-band hot-electron bolometer mixer based on an NbN film Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Radiophys. Quant. Electron. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 52 Issue 8 Pages 576-582
Keywords HEB mixer, in-situ contacts, noise temperature, conversion gain bandwidth, diffusion cooling channel
Abstract We develop and study a hot-electron bolometer mixer made of a two-layer NbN–Au film in situ deposited on a silicon substrate. The double-sideband noise temperature of the mixer is 750 K at a frequency of 2.5 THz. The conversion efficiency measurements show that at the superconducting transition temperature, the intermediate-frequency bandwidth amounts to about 6.5 GHz for a mixer 0.112 μm long. These record-breaking characteristics are attributed to the improved contacts between a sensitive element and a helical antenna and are reached due to using the in situ deposition of NbN and Au layers at certain stages of the process.
