A Folded Dipole Antenna for Terahertz Continuous-wave Power Enhancement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Folded dipole antennas are analyzed to increase the terahertz continuous-wave output power. The calculated input impedance of the folded dipole antenna was 3000 Ω. In order to verify the power increase of the proposed antenna, the antenna is fabricated and measured by using the liquid helium cooled silicon bolometer.

Nano-antenna in a photoconductive photomixer for highly efficient continuous wave terahertz emission
We report highly efficient continuous-wave terahertz (THz) photoconductive antenna based photomixer employing nano-gap electrodes in the active region. The tip-to-tip nano-gap electrode structure provides strong THz field enhancement and acts as a nano-antenna to radiate the THz wave generated in the active region of the photomixer. In addition, it provides good impedance matching to the THz pl...
