Abstract
We propose a THz frequency clock generator for prospective plasmonic devices. The device is based on the optical frequency plasmonic generator (spaser), which includes both gain medium and saturable absorber. The latter enables a passive mode-locking regime and leads to spiking. This effect is confirmed by modelling using the realistic parameters.
