Popis: A highly sensitive room-temperature graphene photothermoelectric terahertz detector, with an efficient optical coupling structure of asymmetric logarithmic antenna, was fabricated by planar micro-nano processing technology and two-dimensional material transfer techniques. The designed logarithmic antenna acts as an optical coupling structure to effectively localize the incident terahertz waves at the source end, thus forming a temperature gradient in the device channel and inducing the thermoelectric terahertz response. At zero bias, the device has a high photoresponsivity of 1.54 A/W, a noise equivalent power of 19.8 pW/Hz1/2, and a response time of 900 ns at 105 GHz. Through qualitative analysis of the response mechanism of graphene PTE devices, we find that the electrode-induced doping of graphene channel near the metal-graphene contacts play a key role in the terahertz PTE response. This work provides an effective way to realize high sensitivity terahertz detectors at room temperature.
