Abstract:Over the past 15 years, the output power of silicon submillimeter-wave electronics has increased by a factor greater than 1000 reaching −3.9 dBm at 440 GHz for a single unit in CMOS and −10.7 dBm at 1.01 THz for a 42-element array in SiGe BiCMOS. The smallest power of a 1 kHz bandwidth signal at 420 GHz that can be detected has improved by 100 million times. These and the expected improvements from the ongoing activities should be sufficient to support high resolution imaging with a range of up to several hund… Show more
