Детектирование Субтерагерцевых Колебаний На Основе Гетероструктуры Антиферромагнетик/Тяжелый Металл

Abstract

We study a model of a detector of subterahertz electromagnetic waves based on an array of heterostructures containing an antiferromagnet and a heavy metal. We show that the operating frequency of the detector can be tuned by a constant magnetic field applied in the direction of the easy magnetization axis of the antiferromagnet. The dependence of the rectified voltage on the frequency of the external electromagnetic wave for different values ​​of the constant magnetic field is resonant in nature, and an increase in the constant magnetic field leads to an increase in the resonance peak. It is shown that the use of an array of antiferromagnets in the form of a comb structure makes it possible to increase the level of the rectified output voltage.
