W-Band Graphene-Based Six-Port Receiver
Journal article, 2018

We demonstrate a full-fledged millimeter-wave graphene-based six-port receiver frontend at 90 GHz employing graphene power detectors. Exploiting the high responsivity and wide dynamic range reported for the state-of-the-art graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs), graphene power detectors are demonstrated beyond the maximum oscillation frequency, f max , of the graphene transistor. The proposed circuit is fabricated on thinned SiC substrate and its functionality is verified by demodulation of 10-Mbps ON-OFF keying (OOK) digitally modulated signal.
