Description

Novel monolithic integration terahertz second harmonic mixer
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz mixers, in particular to a novel single-chip integrated terahertz second harmonic mixer.
Background
Terahertz (THz) waves refer to electromagnetic waves in the frequency range of 0.3THz to 3THz, where 1 thz=1000 GHz. It is now widely accepted in the industry that the range of terahertz frequencies can be extended to 0.1-10 thz, i.e. frequencies above 100GHz belong to terahertz frequencies. THz wave occupies a unique position in electromagnetic spectrum, has wide application prospect in security inspection imaging, high-speed wireless communication and other aspects, and is the key focusing field in the current international scientific and technological world and industry.
Because it is difficult to obtain a large local oscillation driving power in the terahertz frequency band, the mixer in the terahertz frequency band usually adopts a harmonic mixing mode to reduce the local oscillation frequency to one-nth (n=2, 4, 6 … …) of the radio frequency, and the second harmonic mixer is most commonly used.
The terahertz mixer chip disclosed and reported at home and abroad at present is mainly realized based on a hybrid integration method. And respectively designing and processing a circuit passive structure based on a quartz substrate and a terahertz Schottky diode based on a GaAs base, and integrating a discrete diode and the quartz substrate into a complete mixer circuit through a flip-chip bonding technology. The implementation of such hybrid integrated circuits has a number of limitations that make hybrid integrated mixer chips difficult to use and mass produce.
First, the size of the schottky diode in the terahertz band is very small, typically less than hundred microns, which requires the flip-chip bonding step of the chip to be performed by a very specialized technician, which is extremely inefficient. Even so, the flip-chip shift error is typically in the order of ten microns, which is unacceptable for circuits in the terahertz band, resulting in increased mixing losses. On the other hand, each port of the hybrid integrated mixer chip adopts a waveguide microstrip transitional circuit mode, and the mixer chip must be assembled into a module mode to be tested and used, so that the chip test cannot be directly performed. Because the terahertz frequency band has high frequency and small waveguide size, the mechanical machining precision requirement on the module cavity is extremely high, the machining cost is high, the working time is long, and the research and development period and cost of the terahertz frequency mixer chip are increased.
Some hybrid integrated circuit improvements have also been proposed in which the substrate of the passive structure of the circuit is replaced by a quartz substrate with the same GaAs based substrate as the schottky diode and the passive structure substrate is maintained at the same thickness as the schottky diode. During circuit manufacture, a discrete Schottky diode is manufactured, and then a circuit passive structure is manufactured on the periphery of the diode in a metal sputtering and electroplating mode. The method can realize the integrated design of the chip, and is beneficial to improving the design precision and efficiency. However, this method cannot realize the metal through hole on the back of the substrate when the circuit is fabricated, and the fabricated chip still needs to additionally design a grounded peripheral circuit. Meanwhile, the risk of performance degradation of the prefabricated schottky diode caused by the influence of the subsequent sputtering plating process is also unavoidable.
