Plasma wave resonant detection of terahertz radiations by nanometric transistors

We report on resonant terahertz detection by two-dimensional electron plasma located in
 nanometric InGaAs and GaN transistors. Up to now, the biggest part of the research was devoted
 to GaAs-based devices as the most promising from the point of view of the electron mobility. The&am...

description We report on resonant terahertz detection by two-dimensional electron plasma located in
 nanometric InGaAs and GaN transistors. Up to now, the biggest part of the research was devoted
 to GaAs-based devices as the most promising from the point of view of the electron mobility. The
 resonant detection was reported, however, only in the sub-THz range. According to predictions of
 the Dyakonov–Shur plasma wave detection theory an increase of the detection frequency can be
 achieved by reducing the length or increase the carrier density in the gated region.We demonstrate
 that the 1THz limit can be overcome by using ultimately short gate InGaAs and GaN nanotransistors.
 For the first time the tunability of the resonant signal by the applied gate voltage is
 demonstrated. We show that the physical mechanism of the detection is related to the plasma
 waves excited in the transistor channel (Dyakonov–Shur theory). We also show that by increasing
 of the drain-to-source current leads to a transformation of the broadband detection to a resonant
 and tuneable one. We can get resonant detection at room temperature. We finally discuss the possible
 application of detection by nanotransistors in different types of THz spectroscopy research.
