The asymmetry is understood as inhomogeneous properties along the conducting channel. In the first type of devices, an inhomogeneous morphology of the CNT grid is used. In the second type of devices, metals with highly varying work functions are used as the contact material. The relation between the sensitivity and detector configuration is analyzed. Based on the data obtained, approaches to the development of an efficient detector of terahertz radiation, based on carbon nanotubes are proposed. %K carbon nanotubes %K CNT detectors %R 10.1134/S106378261612006X %U http://link.springer.com/10.1134/S106378261612006X %U https://doi.org/10.1134/S106378261612006X %P 1600-1603
