Abstract :
We present sub-picosecond time-domain (THz bandwidth) characterization of novel ballistic transport electronic devices operated at room temperature, using a photoconductive switch for picosecond electrical pulse excitation and a femtosecond temporal resolution electro-optic sampling technique.
