Problems solved by technology

However, terahertz technology still faces many challenges before it can be widely used in practical applications.
One of the main factors restricting the development of terahertz technology is the lack of terahertz detection technology with high sensitivity, low cost, low power consumption and fast response that can work at room temperature

Abstract

The invention discloses a terahertz detector based on an antiferromagnetic nonmagnetic metal heterojunction, which belongs to the field of photoelectric detection technology. Hertz radiation energy is converted into spin waves, and the inverse spin Hall effect in non-magnetic metals with strong spin-orbit coupling is used to convert spin waves into charge flow at the interface, which is read out by electrodes on both sides of the non-magnetic metal surface Voltage signal, so as to realize the detection of terahertz radiation. The invention utilizes electron spin properties to realize terahertz detection. It is a spin terahertz detector with the advantages of zero power consumption, fast response, easy integration, and room temperature operation.
