We demonstrate, for the first time, an all-optoelectronic continuous-wave terahertz photomixing system that uses low-temperature grown InGaAs devices both for emitters and coherent homodyne detectors. The system is compatible with fiber-optic excitation wavelengths, and we compare the performance to the more common LT-GaAs photomixers.

We discuss the optoelectronic generation and detection of continuous-wave terahertz (THz) radiation by the mixing of visible/near-infrared laser radiation in photoconductive antennas. We review attempts to reach higher THz output-power levels by reverting from mobility-lifetime-limited photomixers to transit-time-limited p-i-n photodiodes. We then describe our implementation of a THz spectroscopy and imaging-measurement system and demonstrate its imaging performance with several examples.
