description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Other literature type 2018 IndiaPublisher:AIP Publishing Abhishek Gupta; Goutam Rana; Arkabrata Bhattacharya; Abhishek Singh; Ravikumar Jain; Rudheer Bapat; Siddhartha P. Duttagupta; S. S. Prabhu;Photoconductive antennas (PCAs) are among the most conventional devices used for emission as well as detection of terahertz (THz) radiation. However, due to their low optical-to-THz conversion efficiencies, applications of these devices in out-of-laboratory conditions are limited. In this paper, we report several factors of enhancement in THz emission efficiency from conventional PCAs by coating a nano-layer of dielectric (TiO2) on the active area between the electrodes of a semi-insulating GaAs-based device. Extensive experiments were done to show the effect of thicknesses of the TiO2 layer on the THz power enhancement with different applied optical power and bias voltages. Multiphysics simulations were performed to elucidate the underlying physics behind the enhancement of efficiency of the PCA. Additionally, this layer increases the robustness of the electrode gaps of the PCAs with high electrical insulation as well as protect it from external dust particles.
