Besides the detector, the receiver chain includes an on chip patch antenna and a broadband base-band amplifier. The low modulation frequency charac-terization shows a responsivity around 3 V/W at 290 GHz with a bandwidth around 20 GHz (280 ~ 300 GHz). Using a PRBS signal source, the highest measured detectable data rate is 1 Gb/s at 300 GHz carrier frequency, which shows the capability of data communication using the single FET plasma wave detector. The measured data rate is limited by the output power generated from the modulated signal source as well as the noise collected over the bandwidth of the amplifier. To the authors' best knowledge, this is the first demonstration of successful communication in CMOS with integrated antenna, single plasma wave FET detector and broadband amplifier in sub-millimeter/terahertz wave frequencies.Show less >
