  Title Terahertz superconducting hot electron bolometer heterodyne receivers Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 17 Issue 2 Pages 252-258  
  Keywords HEB, mixer, direct detection effect  
  Abstract We highlight the progress on NbN hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixers achieved through fruitful collaboration between SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research and Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. This includes the best receiver noise temperatures of 700 K at 1.63 THz using a twin-slot antenna mixer and 1050 K at 2.84 THz using a spiral antenna coupled HEB mixer. The mixers are based on thin NbN films on Si and fabricated with a new contact-process and-structure. By reducing their areas HEB mixers have shown an LO power requirement as low as 30 nW. Those small HEB mixers have demonstrated equivalent sensitivity as those with large areas provided the direct detection effect due to broadband radiation is removed. To manifest that a HEB based heterodyne receiver can in practice be used at arbitrary frequencies above 2 THz, we demonstrate a 2.8 THz receiver using a THz quantum cascade laser (QCL) as local oscillator.

  Title Gain bandwidth of NbN hot-electron bolometer terahertz mixers on 1.5 μm Si3N4 / SiO2 membranes Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication J. Appl. Phys. Abbreviated Journal J. Appl. Phys.  
  Volume 101 Issue 12 Pages 124508 (1 to 6)  
  Keywords HEB, mixer, membrane  
  Abstract The gain bandwidth of NbN hot-electron bolometer terahertz mixers on electrically thin Si3N4/SiO2 membranes was experimentally investigated and compared with that of HEB mixers on bulk substrates. A gain bandwidth of 3.5 GHz is achieved on bulk silicon, whereas the gain bandwidth is reduced down to 0.6–0.9 GHz for mixers on 1.5 μm Si3N4/SiO2 membranes. We show that application of a MgO buffer layer on the membrane extends the gain bandwidth to 3 GHz. The experimental data were analyzed using the film-substrate acoustic mismatch approach.

  Title Nanoparticles for detecting pollutants and degradation processes with mass-sensitive sensors Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical Abbreviated Journal Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical  
  Volume 127 Issue 1 Pages 132-136  
  Keywords molecular imprinted polymer, MIP, recognition, quartz crystal microbalance, QCM, mass-sensitive sensor, detector  
  Abstract Compared with thin films, nanoparticle layers as coatings for QCM offer substantially increased interaction areas and sensitivities with favourable response times. Molybdenum disulphide (MoS2), e.g. has turned out to be a highly suitable material for interacting with thiols. The resulting materials are sufficiently soft according to Pearson to bind sulphur containing compounds reversibly. Depositing MoS2 nanoparticle submonolayers (particle size 200–300 nm) leads to an increase in sensor response by a factor of ten compared to a pure gold layer. Additionally, the nanoparticle layers show fully reversible sensor signals. Particle synthesis can also be combined with the molecular imprinting approach: by a precipitation technique, it is possible to generate molecularly imprinted TiO2 particles for engine oil degradation measurements. Compared with deposited thin layers, particles incorporate oxidised compounds from lubricants by a factor of two better.

  Title Optical response of single-wall carbon nanotube sheets in the far-infrared spectral range from 1 THz to 40 THz Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Physica Status Solidi (B) Abbreviated Journal Phys. Stat. Sol. (B)  
  Volume 244 Issue 11 Pages 3950-3954  
  Keywords single wall, carbon nanotube, SWNT, SWCNT, CNT, detector, sensor, TDS  
  Abstract The optical properties of single-wall carbon nanotube sheets in the far-infrared have been investigated with THz time-domain spectroscopy. Over a wide frequency range from 1 THz to 40 THz, the complex dielectric function of the nanotube sample has been derived. Our data can be excellently reproduced by a Drude-Lorentz model function. The extracted fit parameters such as Lorentz resonance frequency and plasma frequency are consistent with values obtained by scanning tunneling techniques. We discuss the origin of both the Lorentz and Drude contribution in terms of direct and indirect optical transitions.
