摘要:

石墨烯THz辐射检测器中的热电读出需要跨越石墨烯沟道的pn结。即使没有有意的pn结,两个潜在结也可以通过接近金属而存在于电极/天线附近。在对称结构中,这些结背靠背连接,因此在交流信号整流方面相互平衡。由于珀耳帖效应,小的直流电流会导致一个pn结中的额外加热和另一个结中的冷却,从而破坏对称性。然后,pn结不再抵消,导致大大增强的整流信号。这允许简化设计并有效地控制太赫兹辐射探测器的灵敏度。

英文摘要:

Thermoelectric readout in a graphene THz radiation detector requires a p-n junction across the graphene channel. Even without an intentional p-n junction, two latent junctions can exist in the vicinity of the electrodes/antennas through the proximity to metal. In a symmetrical structure, these junctions are connected back-to-back and therefore counterbalance each other with regard to rectification of the ac signal. Because of the Peltier effect, a small dc current results in additional heating in one- and cooling in another p-n junction, thereby breaking the symmetry. The p-n junctions then no longer cancel, resulting in a greatly enhanced rectified signal. This allows to simplify the design and effectively control the sensitivity of the THz-radiation detectors.
