Cascade Photodetector Array with Balanced Detection Function for Terahertz Applications

A uni-traveling-carrier photodetector (UTC-PD) cascade array for terahertz applications is proposed and the 3dB bandwidth can be improved from 203 GHz to 267 GHz. The cascade array can also obtain a balanced detection function.
