Abstract:
Terahertz (THz) domain is quickly developing with various applications such as beam diagnostics at particle accelerators, spectroscopy, communications, space science, etc, however, often requiring fast intermediate frequency (IF) electronics. We present the design of a double mirror stub (DMS) based a planar broadband bias tee having an isolation port S31 with 14.45 GHz bandwidth below -10 dB and S33 with 13.1 GHz bandwidth above -2 dB. CST simulation and measured results are in very good agreement. The bias tee will be a part of a new generation of on-chip THz detectors based on zero-bias Schottky diode and high electron mobility field effect transistor (HEMT).
