  • Abstract
    Novel high efficiency Terahertz on-chip antenna is presented. The proposed antenna is based on IHP SiGe process SG13G2. We use the SiO2 layer as a low-loss substrate. The antenna structure is shielded from the lossy bulk of the chip with a rectangular ground. The antenna has a simulated gain of 2.25dBi at 710GHz and radiation efficiency of 31%.
