Abstract
A terahertz detector composed of a metamaterial absorber and micro-bolometer sensor integrated in a standard CMOS process is presented. The prototype demonstrates an innovative, uncooled, low cost, compact terahertz detector that is readily scaleable to high resolution focal plane array formats. The detector imaging capability is demonstrated in a transmission mode experiment.
