RASTERIZED GATE Technical field The present invention relates to the technical field of terahertz detectors, and more particularly to a metal gate MOSFET terahertz detector based on an aperiodically rasterized gate.
Technical background A Terahertz wave is an electromagnetic wave between microwaves and infrared light on the electromagnetic spectrum, and has a frequency of about 0.1 to 10 THz and a wavelength corresponding to 3 mm to 30 um. The Terahertz technology is one of the frontiers and hotspots of information science and technology research. In recent years, it has attracted extensive attention from research institutions around the world. Developed countries such as the United States, Japan, and Europe have successively rated the terahertz technology as "the top ten technologies for changing the future world" and "the top ten strategic goals of the country's key technology", and invested heavily to consolidate their international status in the terahertz field. Terahertz has broad application prospects and has a wide range of technical applications in astrophysics, materials science, biomedicine, environmental science, spectroscopy and imaging technology, information science and technology and the like. The Terahertz technology can significantly enhance China's strength in aerospace, space communications, biomedical, even food testing and other aspects. A terahertz detector, which is the basis of terahertz applications, is a key component of terahertz security and detection. In the terahertz wave band, any conductor leads may cause extremely serious parasitic effects, so that the performance of most detectors based on the Ill-V/II-VI process is difficult to control, even in the absence of work, thereby limiting the |
| 2 BL-5115 LU101404 practical use of this type of terahertz detectors.
The development of CMOS-compatible process-based room-temperature terahertz detectors is the basis for low-cost and large-scale promotion of terahertz detection and array imaging.
However, at present, the existing CMOS-compatible process-based detectors generally have many shortcomings such as a slow response speed, low sensitivity, a high cost, and a demand of generally working at a low temperature, which greatly limits the integration application and development of the terahertz technology.
Therefore, the development of CMOS-compatible room-temperature terahertz detectors with high responsiveness, high sensitivity and low prices has become a problem urgently needed to be solved in the integration application and development of the terahertz technology.
Summary of the invention The present invention provides a metal gate MOSFET terahertz detector based on an aperiodically rasterized gate.
The adjustment of the THz response wave-band range is realized by adjusting rasterized structure parameters (width, length, region area, and pattern form of grating) of the gate, thereby improving the detection sensitivity of the terahertz detector; and by photolithography, nanoimprinting and regulation of artificial microstructure materials, an aperiodical grating structure having various pattern forms is introduced to replace a metal gate of an original MOSFET, achieving the rasterization of the metal gate prepared by a CMOS-compatible low-dimensional semiconductor material (such as a nanowire), so that the gate is resonated with the terahertz waves, enhancing the plasma resonance effect, thereby increasing the response speed of the detector.
The objects of the present invention are achieved by the following technical solutions.

The first bias voltage source and the first bias resistor are used for supplying DC power to the metal gate MOSFET, and a THz response wave-band range is adjusted by adjusting rasterized structure parameters (width, length, region area and pattern form of grating) of the gate of the metal gate MOSFET.
Compared with the prior art, the technical solutions of the present invention have the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention is based on a silicon-based CMOS process, which is convenient to integrate with a back-end circuit, and is easy to realize mass production, thereby reducing the cost of the detector.

| 4 BL-5115 LU101404 (2) The present invention can realize the adjustment of the THz response wave-band range by adjusting the rasterized structure parameters (the width, the length, the region area and the pattern form of the grating) of the gate. 5 (3) By adopting the method of rasterizing the metal gate, the present invention can reduce diffusion and loss problems of weak terahertz signals in space and Plasmonic excited by a metal structure in the gate in the propagation process. (4) The present invention forms a rasterized channel in the channel, realizes resonance enhancement between the Plasmon in the substrate and the Plasmonic of the gate, and improves the detection efficiency. (5) The present invention does not need to use an antenna, and can effectively avoid the problems such as a large loss and a low gain and radiation efficiency of an on-chip antenna, and difficulty in verifying by a DRC design rule; and the chip area is greatly reduced, and the production cost is greatly reduced. (6) The present invention can utilize the grating to regulate the resonance principle of light and the like, so that the rasterized metal gate and the terahertz wave resonate, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency.

A metal gate MOSFET terahertz detector based on an aperiodically rasterized gate of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, includes a metal gate MOSFET Q1 having the aperiodically rasterized gate and various different pattern forms thereof, a low noise preamplifier Q2 and a voltage feedback loop.
The gate Grating-Gate of the metal gate MOSFET Q1 is used for receiving a terahertz signal, and connected via a first bias resistor Rb1 to load a bias voltage source Vb1 for supplying DC power to the metal gate MOSFET Q1. The adjustment of the THz response wave-band range can be realized by adjusting rasterized structure parameters (width, length, region area and pattern form of grating) of the gate Grating-Gate of the metal gate MOSFET Q1, thereby improving the detection sensitivity of the terahertz detector. Herein, the first bias voltage source Vb1 is a fixed DC bias voltage source. A source S of the metal gate MOSFET Q1 is grounded GND, and a first DC blocking capacitor C1 is connected between a drain D of the metal gate MOSFET Q1 and a positive input terminal of the low noise preamplifier Q2. The positive input terminal of the low noise preamplifier Q2 is connected to the second bias voltage source Vb2 via the second bias resistor Rb2. Herein, the second bias resistor Rb2 and the second bias voltage source Vb2 are used for supplying power to the low | |

The voltage feedback loop is mainly composed of a feedback resistor Rf, a grounding resistor Rg, a second DC blocking capacitor C2, and a third DC blocking capacitor C3. The feedback resistor Rf is connected between an output terminal and a negative input terminal of the low noise preamplifier Q2, one end of the grounding resistor Rg is connected to the negative input terminal of the low noise preamplifier Q2, and the other end is grounded GND via the second DC blocking capacitor C2, and one end of the third DC blocking capacitor C3 is connected to the output terminal of the low noise preamplifier Q2, and the other end is grounded GND. Herein, the adjustment of the gain of the low noise preamplifier Q2 can be realized by changing the resistance values of the feedback resistor Rf and the grounding resistor Rg.
The output voltage signal of the metal gate MOSFET terahertz detector based on an aperiodically rasterized gate of the present invention is a DC voltage signal, and the magnitude of the DC voltage signal is proportional to the radiation intensity of the terahertz signal, so that the intensity information of the incident terahertz signal can be obtained according to the magnitude of the output voltage signal of the terahertz detector, thereby realizing terahertz detection. Although the functions and working processes of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to the specific functions and working processes described above, and the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not limiting. Many forms may be made by an ordinary person skilled in the art under the inspiration of the present invention, without departing from the gist of the present invention and the scope protected by the claims, and all of these are within the protection of the present invention. | |
