Abstract :
By incorporating low-temperature-grown GaAs based separated-transport-recombination photodiode with micromachined antenna, such photonic-transmitter can radiate strong sub-THz waves at designed frequency (~500 GHz) without using Si-lens. Problems of device saturation under high bias voltage were also eliminated.
