Abstract :
By combining a UTC-PD as a THz emitter and a 400 GHz Schottky-based heterodyne detection, we realized an indoor THz link working up to 22 Gbps at 400 GHz carrier frequency with ultra-low THz power. The eye diagram at receiver is clearly opened are the system is working with only 1 μW received THz power.
