High Sensitivity Terahertz Bolometers as Room Temperature Detectors
Paper in proceeding, 2014

High sensitivity room temperature THz direct detectors made of YBa2Cu3O7-x nano-bridges, with a broadband optical coupling (0.1-2THz) are presented. An optical responsivity (RV) up to 45 V/W was measured at 400 GHz. For bolometers with an electrical responsivity of 70 V/W a noise equivalent power (NEP) of 50 pW/Hz0.5 was experimental obtained.
