[0002] Terahertz refers to electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 0.1 THz-10 THz. The long-wave direction mainly belongs to the field of electronics, while the short-wave direction mainly belongs to the field of photonics. It is between the mature microwave millimeter waves and infrared light.

As the core device in the terahertz field, the terahertz radiation power meter plays an important role in the terahertz system. Therefore, the accurate understanding of the terahertz radiation characteristics determines the application market of the terahertz system. As an indispensable device in terahertz application technology, increasing the research efforts on power meters will be beneficial to the development of terahertz technology. However, the existing power meters generally have the disadvantages of complex structure, slow response speed, low sensitivity and poor stability. In view of the above disadvantages, the utility model designs a graphene terahertz power meter with simple structure, fast response, high sensitivity and good stability. Utility Model Content
