We have developed a novel terahertz-wave detector on a SiC platform using an InP/InGaAs FMB diode. The detector exhibits a low noise equivalent power and has successfully integrated a waveguide coupler and filters.
We developed a novel terahertz-wave detector fabricated on a SiC platform implementing an InP/InGaAs Fermi-level managed barrier (FMB) diode. The FMB diode epi-layers were transferred on a SiC substrate, and a waveguide coupler and filters were monolithically integrated with an FMB diode. Then, the fabricated detector chip was assembled in a fundamental mixer module with a WR-3 rectangular-waveguide-input port. It exhibited a minimum noise equivalent power as low as 3 x 10(-19) W Hz(-1) at around 300 GHz for a local oscillator power of only 30 mu W.
