Description

Novel monolithic integration terahertz second harmonic mixer
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz frequency mixers, in particular to a novel monolithic integration terahertz second harmonic frequency mixer.
Background
Terahertz (THz) waves refer to electromagnetic waves within a frequency range of 0.3THz to 3THz, wherein 1THz =1000 GHz. At present, the range of terahertz frequency can be expanded to 0.1 THz-10 THz, and the frequency higher than 100GHz belongs to terahertz frequency. The THz wave occupies a unique position in an electromagnetic wave spectrum, has a wide application prospect in the aspects of security inspection imaging, high-speed wireless communication and the like, and is a key focusing field in the current international scientific and technological field and industrial field.
Because it is difficult to obtain large local oscillation driving power in the terahertz frequency band, the mixer in the terahertz frequency band usually adopts a form of harmonic mixing to reduce the local oscillation frequency to one N times of the radio frequency (N =2, 4, 6 … …), wherein the most commonly used is a second harmonic mixer.
At present, the terahertz mixer chips published at home and abroad are mainly realized based on a hybrid integration method. A circuit passive structure based on a quartz substrate and a terahertz Schottky diode based on a GaAs substrate are respectively designed and processed, and then the discrete diode and the quartz substrate are integrated into a complete mixer circuit through a flip chip welding technology. The implementation of such hybrid integrated circuits has many limitations, which make the hybrid integrated mixer chip difficult to be used in practical and mass production.
Firstly, the size of the schottky diode in the terahertz frequency band is very small, usually less than one hundred micrometers, which requires a flip chip bonding step to be performed by a very specialized technician, and the efficiency is extremely low. Even so, the shift error of flip-chip bonding is typically on the order of ten micrometers, which is unacceptable for circuits in the terahertz frequency band, resulting in increased mixing loss. On the other hand, each port of the hybrid integrated mixer chip adopts a circuit form of waveguide microstrip transition, and the mixer chip can be tested and used only by being assembled into a module form, so that the chip test cannot be directly carried out. Due to the fact that the frequency of the terahertz frequency band is high, the waveguide size is small, the requirement on machining precision of the module cavity is extremely high, machining cost is high, working hours are long, and the research and development period and cost of the terahertz frequency mixer chip are prolonged.
There have also been proposed some hybrid integrated circuit improvement methods in which the substrate of the circuit passive structure is replaced with a GaAs-based substrate, which is the same as the schottky diode, at the time of circuit design, and the thickness of the passive structure substrate is maintained to be the same as the thickness of the schottky diode. When the circuit is manufactured, the discrete Schottky diodes are manufactured firstly, and then the circuit passive structure is manufactured on the periphery of the diodes in a metal sputtering and electroplating mode. By the method, the integrated design of the chip can be realized, and the design precision and efficiency can be improved. However, this method cannot realize the metal via hole connected to the back surface of the substrate when the circuit is fabricated, and the fabricated chip still needs to additionally design a grounded peripheral circuit. Meanwhile, the risk of performance deterioration caused by the influence of the subsequent sputtering electroplating process on the prefabricated schottky diode is difficult to avoid.
