Abstract :
An overview of recent progress in terahertz monolithic integrated circuits (TMICs) is presented in this paper. Semiconductor technologies available for TMIC implementation are described, and recent results on amplifiers and signal sources operating at THz band are discussed. Finally, the current status of THz integrated transceiver system is reviewed.
