The devices were 3 nm thick films with in-plane dimensions 1.7 {\texttimes} 0.2 {\textmu}m2 and 0.9 {\texttimes} 0.2 {\textmu}m2 integrated in a complementary logarithmic-spiral antenna. Measurements were performed at seven frequencies ranging from 0.7 THz to 5.2 THz. The measured DSB noise temperatures are 1500 K (0.7 THz), 2200 K (1.4 THz), 2600 K (1.6 THz), 2900 K (2.5 THz), 4000 K (3.1 THz), 5600 K (4.3 THz) and 8800 K (5.2 THz).", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=298), last updated on Tue, 25 May 2021 12:04:58 -0500", doi="10.1088/0953-2048/12/11/317", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-2048/12/11/317" }
