摘要:

紧凑且高灵敏度的微波检测器与互补金属氧化物半导体(CMOS)工艺兼容的研发是活跃的研究领域,但仍是微波技术的主要挑战。spin-torque二极管(STDs)是新兴的纳米级自旋电子器件,能够超越肖特基二极管的理论热力学灵敏度极限。然而,其在紧凑系统中的实际应用受限于需要外部天线或探针。本文展示了一种磁电(ME)spin-torque微波检测器,该器件单片集成了磁电天线与磁隧道结(MTJ)。该设备直接将无线电磁信号转换为直流输出,功率水平低于亚微瓦,实现了大于90kV/W的灵敏度,噪声等效功率为3pW·Hz^-0.5,以及0.4mm²的紧凑足迹。此性能源于磁化动态的非线性耦合,由MTJ中的直流电流驱动,并受磁电天线在入射电磁波下产生的微波电压和应变的共同影响。我们进一步表明,该设计具有可扩展性,能够实现磁电天线与MTJ阵列的共整合。例如,一个包含四个MTJ的检测器表现出超过400kV/W的灵敏度。本文为结合磁电天线和自旋二极管的新型高灵敏度、紧凑且可扩展的微波检测器开辟了新途径。

英文摘要:

The development of compact and highly sensitive microwave detectors compatible with complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processes is an active research area but remains a major challenge in microwave technology. Spin-torque diodes (STDs) are emerging nanoscale spintronic devices capable of surpassing the theoretical thermodynamic sensitivity limits of Schottky diodes. However, their practical use in compact systems is limited by the need of external antennas or probes. Here, we demonstrate a magnetoelectric (ME) spin-torque microwave detector that monolithically integrates an ME antenna with a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). The device directly converts wireless electromagnetic signals into a DC output at sub-microwatt power levels, achieving a sensitivity greater than 90 kV/W, a noise equivalent power of 3 pW*Hz^-0.5, and a compact footprint of 0.4 mm^2. This performance is due to the nonlinear coupling between incoherent magnetization dynamics, driven by a DC current in the MTJ, and the combined effects of the microwave voltage and strain generated by the ME antenna under incident electromagnetic waves. We further show that this design is scalable, enabling the co-integration of an ME antenna with an array of MTJs. A detector incorporating four MTJs, for example, exhibits a sensitivity exceeding 400 kV/W. This work paves the way for a new generation of highly sensitive, compact and scalable microwave detectors that combine ME antennas and spintronic diodes.
