📄 原文摘要

The THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum is gaining interest due to its unique spectroscopic properties that make it useful for gas detection, biological imaging, and accurate timekeeping. While several techniques allowed these applications to be explored in the lower region of the THz spectrum, effective power generation at frequencies above 500GHz is still a challenge in CMOS. However, maximum gas absorption for rotational spectroscopy occurs at this range, and at even higher frequencies gas vibrational modes can be detected [1], making such frequency sources attractive for current and future applications. As fundamental oscillation is not possible above the transistor fmax, THz sources have to multiply the frequency of an external or an on-chip mm-wave oscillator. For the same resulting frequency, a combination of different fundamental frequencies and multiplication numbers can be used. However, as the fundamental
