Outline • Introduction • Modulated THz radiation detector • Reduction the model to the capacitance transducer equations • Calculation for the threshold signal amplitude and power
Motivation Modulated THz radiation detectors are required Expected roadmap for some THz applications, 2007*) * Masayoshi Tonouchi, “Cutting-edge terahertz technology”, Nature Photonics 1, 97 - 105 (2007)

Parametric instability in capacitance transducer Dimensionless equations
Device scheme & model Front view Top view Hydrodynamic model of electron transport in 2DEG Gate charge field component
Solution of the linearized equations Because of the linear equations Characteristic frequency & quality factor of the 2DEG oscillations
Equivalent system of ODEs … As it would be if the device was the following:
Results & conclusion According to our previous work**), in the case of plain metallic cantilever gate: can be 2-3 orders lower in the case of SWCNT gate * Huttel A.K. et al // Nano Lett., Vol. 9, No. 7, P. 2547, 2009. ** Arsenin A.V. et al // J. of Comm.
