Ultra-wideband solid-state biased coherent detector for multi-angle detection of THz pulses

In recent years, significant progress has been made in the fields of nonlinear and ultrafast optics, offering exciting opportunities for terahertz (THz) science and technology. In this study, we present a novel design of a SSBCD (Solid-State-Biased Coherent Detection) device for the coherent detection of ultra-broadband THz pulses. By increasing the number of cross-fingers, we have effectively enhanced the sensitivity of the SSBCD device. The design of stepped and circular structures has successfully expanded the detectable electric field directions while reducing the dependence on the incident field direction. As a result, we have achieved ultra-broadband detection with a high dynamic range and a wide detection angle. These research findings lay a critical foundation for the integration of solid-state ultra-broadband detection into compact and miniaturized terahertz systems.
