Design of a New Terahertz Nanowaveguide Amplifier

A novel amplifier is proposed based on a nanostructured waveguide supporting terahertz waves. A lateral pin photodiode structure, biased with a dc voltage and illuminated by a continuous-wave light, serves as an amplifying medium whereby drifting light-generated electrons provide energy required for...
