Compact Superconducting Terahertz Source Operating in Liquid Nitrogen

Abstract: We report on a liquid-nitrogen-cooled compact source for continuous terahertz (THz) emission. The emitter is a Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8þδ intrinsic Josephson-junction stack embedded between two gold layers and sandwiched between two MgO substrates. The radiation is emitted to free space through a hollow metallic tube acting as a waveguide. The maximum emission power is 1.17 μW. The tunable emission frequency bandwidth is up to 100 GHz with a maximum emission power at 0.311 THz. Since the operation voltage is about… Show more

“…In a TM/FM bilayer structure, the SHE-induced transverse spin current s J that quantifies the spins being absorbed by the FM layer can be expressed For TMs, W has been reported to possess the largest internal spin Hall ratio and DL-SOT efficiency at room temperature, 0.30 DL ξ ≈ [17]. The efficacy of the SHE from W has been demonstrated and characterized through DL-SOT switching measurements [6,18,19], harmonic voltage methods [20], spin-pumping measurements [21], spin-Hall magnetoresistance measurements [22][23][24], and optical approaches [25,26]. The strength of the SHE in W is also known to be strongly phase dependent: The resistive β-phase or amorphous phase has been experimentally shown to have greater SHE and DL-SOT efficiency while compare to the conductive α-phase or crystalline phase [6,22,26].…”

“…Also, it is mentioned that one limitation of this structure is that thicker Polyethylenes (PEs) coatings are not possible because its poor solubility in solvent, thus reducing the described design benefits for the lower THz frequencies. Some practical uses of the CWG are found in [384], [387]- [389]. In [387], an overmoded CWG was part of a vacuum electronic tube source operating at f = 0.65 THz.…”
