A multiline InP-TRL kit for sub-mmWave characterization of InP-HEMT

R. Younes, Nicolas Wichmann, Sylvie Lepilliet, Guillaume Ducournau, S. Bollaert

We investigate the development of on-wafer multiline Thru-Reflect-Line calibration kits to enable transistor characterization beyond 110 GHz. The final objective is to measure the S parameters of a HEMT having a very high cut-off frequency (up to THz range). A first kit design shows that the use of…

Traveling wave photomixers based on low-temperature-grown Gallium Arsenide reaching 50 mA/W under 1550 nm CW illumination

Charbel Tannoury, Vanessa Avramovic, Etienne Okada, Christophe Coinon, Jean-Francois Lampin, Emilien Peytavit

In this work we present an original design of a traveling-wave photomixer (TWP) based on low-temperature-grown GaAs layer (LT-GaAs) optimized for 1550 nm wavelength excitation. The optical wave is absorbed in the LT-GaAs through an integrated silicon nitride-based waveguide. The optical waveguide…

Split-ring resonators imaged by THz s-SNOM

Cristiane Santos, Theo Hannotte, Louis Thomas, Benjamin Walter, Melanie Lavancier, Sophie Eliet, Marc Faucher, Jean-Francois Lampin, Romain Peretti

Split-ring resonators (SRRs) are one of the most common building blocks to design metamaterials operating over a large range of frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum. Here we acquire s-SNOM images with high signal-to-noise ratio on SRRs by scattering-type scanning near-field optical…

Impedance measurements in La_0.7Sr _0.3MnO₃ thin films for uncooled THz bolometers

T. Quinten, Y. Lechaux, V. Pierron, Jean-Francois Lampin, C. Gunther, Laurence Mechin, Marc Faucher, B. Walter, Bruno Guillet

We present preliminary results on the fabrication and impedance measurement of loads made of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) thin films on SrTiO 3 buffered high resistivity silicon substrates. These loads will be used in uncooled mm-wave and THz bolometers based on LSMO.

High Resolution Molecular Spectroscopy in the THz Region Using Synchrotron Radiation

T. Hearne, Marie-Hélène Mammez, Dominique Mammez, M.-A. Martin-Durel, S. Eliet, Stefano Barbieri, Francis Hindle, P. Roy, Jean-Francois Lampin, Gaël Mouret, Olivier Pirali

Our team exploits the synchrotron radiation extracted by the AILES beamline of SOLEIL synchrotron facility to study different molecular physics problematics in the far-IR and THz spectral ranges. The existing experimental configuration of the beamline, with a high-resolution Bruker interferometer,…

Non-linear impairments of 300 GHz MPAs for THz communications

Laurenz John, Dominik Wrana, Benjamin Schoch, Arnulf Leuther, Pascal Szriftgiser, Guillaume Ducournau

In this paper we report on the use of THz photonics techniques to evaluate the impairments induced by non-linear behavior of 300 GHz amplifier blocks. Using a referenced THz photonics IQ generator, the error-vector magnitude evolution is analyzed towards optimum power operation point of the…

Optoelectronic THz mixer based on iron-doped InGaAs in a plasmonic microcavity

C. Tannoury, V. Merupo, Vanessa Avramovic, R. Kohlhaas, Guillaume Ducournau, B. Globisch, Emilien Peytavit

We present an optoelectronic THz mixer based on irondoped InGaAs integrated into a plasmonic microcavity. The measured conversion loss is as low as ∼30 dB at 300 GHz, which constitutes a 30 dB improvement in comparison to state-of-the-art photoconductors without a plasmonic microcavity. In…

We demonstrate for the first time a novel THz photomixing paradigm exploiting ultrabroadband inverse spin Hall emitters. Both narrow band (∼20 Hz) CW emission by beating of two stabilized IR DFB lasers on a Pt/CoFeB/W stack is obtained as well as successful spintronic downconversion of a IR…

Highly Efficient Terahertz Spintronic Emitter Integrated with Optimized Photonic Crystal

Pierre Kolejak, Geoffrey Lezier, Lukas Halagacka, Zuzana Gelnarova, Jean-Francois Lampin, Nicolas Tiercelin, Mathias Vanwolleghem, Kamil Postava

Spintronic terahertz emitters are new to the terahertz source family. They are broad-spectrum and gapless unlike traditional sources involving semiconductors and nonlinear crystals. Moreover, they can emit intense electromagnetic fields strong enough for nonlinear terahertz application, but on the…
