Аннотация

Предложена новая схема детектора модулированного терагерцевого излучения с рекордно высокой частотой модуляции (вплоть до нескольких ГГц). Детектор базируется на наномеханическом резонаторе, в котором в качестве подвижного элемента используется достаточно узкая графеновая нанолента. Движение графеновой наноленты обусловлено действием пондеромоторной силы, возникающей вследствие возбуждения в системе плазмонного резонанса. Предлагаемый детектор обладает рядом преимуществ по сравнению с ранее предложенными устройствами такого типа, например, более высокой чувствительностью и возможностью перестройки частоты модуляции в широком диапазоне.

  • графеновая нанолента
  • углеродная нанотрубка
  • терагерцевое излучение
  • плазмонный резонатор
  • демодулятор
  • детектор
Abstract (in English)

We proposed a novel scheme of the detector of terahertz radiation modulated by megahertz or gigahertz signals. Detector model is based on the nanomechanical resonator with the sufficiently narrow graphene nanoribbon as a mechanically moving part. Motion of a nanoribbon is supported by the electromagnetic ponderomotive force appearing due to the plasmon resonance exited in the system. Using developed model we obtained that the proposed demodulator has a number of advantages such as higher output signal and higher modulation frequency of incoming radiation in comparison with the previously proposed demodulators of terahertz radiation.
