Silicon-based terahertz technologies and future trends

Being different from traditional terahertz components, silicon-based terahertz systems have the characteristics of low cost, small size, high integration, great maneuverability, and easier implementation of large arrays for large volume adoption. In the past ten years, with the rapid development of semiconductor technology and the increase of the cut-off frequency of silicon-based process transistors, the field of silicon-based terahertz system chip design has developed rapidly. The current research status and development trends of silicon-based terahertz system chips from four aspects: silicon-based terahertz sources, silicon-based terahertz imaging chips, silicon-based terahertz communication chips, and silicon-based terahertz radar chips are reviewed in this paper.
