1 Slide 1 Project: IEEE P Working Group for Wireless Personal Area Networks N (WPANs( WPANs) Title: Room temperature THz sources and detectors with semiconductor nanodevices, the ROOTHz project Date Submitted: 11 March 2011 Source: Javier Mateos, Universidad de Salamanca Address: Facultad de Ciencias, Pza. Merced s/n, Salamanca, Spain Voice: , FAX: , javierm@usal.es Abstract: ROOTHz is a 3 year project funded within the European 7th Framework Program that addresses the fabrication of room temperature, continuous wave, compact, tunable and powerful T-ray sources (at low cost, if possible). For this sake we propose to exploit THz Gunn oscillations in novel (narrow and wide bandgap) semiconductor nanodevices, which have been predicted by simulations but not experimentally confirmed yet. The fabrication of THz detectors with the same technology will complement this objective and make possible the demonstration of a simple THz detection/emission subsystem. Purpose: Dissemination of the ROOTHz project objectives and achievements Notice: This document has been prepared to assist the IEEE P It is offered as a basis for discussion and is not binding on the contributing individual(s) or organization(s).
