Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor photoelectric devices, in particular to a unidirectional carrier photoelectric mixer and an electromagnetic wave phased array antenna receiving front end. Background technique
[0002] A photodetector is a device that converts optical signals into electrical signals. When the photon energy of the incident optical signal is greater than the band gap of the light-absorbing layer material, photogenerated carriers will be generated in the photodetector. At this time, if an AC signal is superimposed on the bias voltage of the photodetector to modulate the photogenerated carriers, the frequency mixing of the input optical signal and the AC signal superimposed on the bias voltage of the photodetector can be realized. The photoelectric mixing in a large number of literatures is to use the nonlinear relationship between the output response of the photodetector and the bias voltage and the incident li...
