Abstract :
Transistors are possible THz detectors using rectification in the channel that can be applied for detection of high data-rate wireless communications, based on THz-frequency carrier. For the first time, we present the transmission of pseudo-random bit sequence at 0.2 THz using a commercial GaAs transistor and demonstrate open eye patterns up to 0.250 Gbps.
