Travelling-wave designs for terahertz photonic mixers have been shown to surpass limitations of small-area designs and therefore have the potential to generate greatly increased continuous-wave (CW) powers at frequencies well above 1 THz and towards 2 THz. Still a lot of optimization process has to be done and new materials tested. Results with different geometries and materials made to date are compared.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
