摘要:

报道了在双栅InAlAs/InGaAs/InAlAs/InP高电子迁移率晶体管(HEMT)中观测到太赫兹(THz)辐射激发的螺旋度敏感光电流。对于圆极化,在源极和漏极接触之间测量的电流随着辐射螺旋度的反转而改变其符号。对于椭圆极化辐射,总电流由具有不同权重的Stokes参数的叠加来描述。此外,通过施加到各个光栅的栅极电压的变化,光电流可以由定义辐射螺旋度的斯托克斯参数或用于线偏振的斯托克斯参数来定义。我们表明,人工非中心对称的微周期结构与太赫兹辐射激发的二维电子系统表现出直流光电流引起的空间周期性的平面内电位和空间调制光的联合作用。这一结果为DGG HEMT应用于辐射极化状态的全电探测提供了理论依据。

英文摘要:

We report on the observation of a radiation helicity sensitive photocurrent excited by terahertz (THz) radiation in dual-grating-gate (DGG) InAlAs/InGaAs/InAlAs/InP high electron mobility transistors (HEMT). For a circular polarization the current measured between source and drain contacts changes its sign with the inversion of the radiation helicity. For elliptically polarized radiation the total current is described by superposition of the Stokes parameters with different weights. Moreover, by variation of gate voltages applied to individual gratings the photocurrent can be defined either by the Stokes parameter defining the radiation helicity or those for linear polarization. We show that artificial non-centrosymmetric microperiodic structures with a two-dimensional electron system excited by THz radiation exhibit a dc photocurrent caused by the combined action of a spatially periodic in-plane potential and spatially modulated light. The results provide a proof of principle for the application of DGG HEMT for all-electric detection of the radiation's polarization state.
