Impact of device resistances in the performance of graphene-based terahertz photodetectors.

In recent years, graphene field-effect-transistors (GFETs) have demonstrated an outstanding potential for terahertz (THz) photodetection due to their fast response and high-sensitivity. Such features are essential to enable emerging THz applications, including 6G wireless communications, quantum information, bioimaging and security. However, the overall performance of these photodetectors may be utterly compromised by the impact of internal resistances presented in the device, so-called access or parasitic resistances.

Terahertz Detection by Asymmetric Dual Grating Gate Bilayer Graphene FETs with Integrated Bowtie Antenna.

An asymmetric dual-grating gate bilayer graphene-based field effect transistor (ADGG-GFET) with an integrated bowtie antenna was fabricated and its response as a Terahertz (THz) detector was experimentally investigated. The device was cooled down to 4.5 K, and excited at different frequencies (0.

Nature of the 1/ noise in graphene-direct evidence for the mobility fluctuation mechanism.

The nature of the low-frequency 1/ noise in electronic materials and devices is one of the oldest unsolved physical problems ( is the frequency). The fundamental question of the noise source-fluctuations in the mobility . number of charge carriers-is still debated.

First Study on the Electronic and Donor Atom Properties of the Ultra-Thin Nanoflakes Quantum Dots.

Nanoflakes ultra-thin quantum dots are theoretically studied as innovative nanomaterials delivering outstanding results in various high fields. In this work, we investigated the surface properties of an electron confined in spherical ultra-thin quantum dots in the presence of an on-center or off-center donor impurity. Thus, we have developed a novel model that leads us to investigate the different nanoflake geometries by changing the spherical nanoflake coordinates (, α, ϕ).

Enhanced terahertz detection of multigate graphene nanostructures.

Terahertz (THz) waves have revealed a great potential for use in various fields and for a wide range of challenging applications. High-performance detectors are, however, vital for exploitation of THz technology. Graphene plasmonic THz detectors have proven to be promising optoelectronic devices, but improving their performance is still necessary.
