Abstract :
Antenna coupled bolometers developed at CEA-Leti can address the whole THz range by proper tailoring of the antennas while keeping the technological stack unchanged. This paper presents the flexibility of the design regarding absorption frequency and presents its capability to sense frequencies below 1 THz.
