St. Petersburg Polytechnical University Journal: Physics and Mathematics. 2024. Vol. 17. No. 3.2. P. 116–120.
Terahertz (THz) integrated circuits is a promising platform to create low cost and efficient components for high-speed sixth-generation (6G) communication networks. One of the key components for this application is detectors and mixers integrated on THz silicon waveguide. Graphene, due to its unique and tunable properties such as zero band gap, high charge mobility and low electronic heat capacity, has already demonstrated promise in free space THz detectors, mixers and modulators development. Moreover, graphene photodetectors integrated on the waveguide have already been demonstrated in visible and near infrared regions. In this work we present an electromagnetic model of graphene terahertz detector integrated on silicon waveguide. Graphene THz detector was designed for operation at 150 GHz and can be used in the next-generation wireless communications for an ultrafast on-chip THz signal processing.

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm. This background will pose a serious problem, when measuring spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background, in particular, the mu-distortion, which presumably has an intensity of less than ...

Light incident upon materials can induce changes in their electrical conductivity, a phenomenon referred to as photoresistance. In semiconductors, the photoresistance is negative, as light-induced promotion of electrons across the bandgap enhances the number of charge carriers participating in transport. In superconductors and normal metals, the photoresistance is positive because of the destruction of the ...

Tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) are considered as main candidates for future low-power electronic circuits. The origin of low-power switching is the steep dependence of source-drain interband tunneling current on the overlap between conduction and valence bands [1]. Despite numerous applications of TFETs in logic circuits, it was not realized that strong (nonlinear) sensitivity of tunnel ...
