摘要: In this paper the generation of sub-mm wave signals by heterodyning two optical in a photo detector is considered. Previous work exhibits very low power efficiency (<1%) and output level (<1 mw) for frequencies mm range. The authors have developed simplified model to simulate process UTC-TW detector. has been validated comparison between simulation measurement results an existing device. Special attention given dependence bandwidth on level. used design performance Good expected at well into region
