Abstract
New CW THz detectors based on graphene nanoelectrodes photomixer are completely investigated. The graphene nanoelectrodes are placed on low-temperature-grown (LTG) GaAs as photoconductive material. Due to the high transparency and high conductivity of graphene, increasing carrier densities were obtained which leads to the high performance detection of THz induced photocurrent being one order of magnitude higher than for conventional metallic interdigitated photomixer. The THz measurement was performed in the range of 50 GHz to 1.1 THz.
