grown monolayer graphene (MLG) was transferred onto a highly intrinsic Si substrate
capped with SiO 2 layer. Subsequently, the antenna patterning was carried out by an
ultra-violet lithography technique as shown in Fig. 15. The NEP, responsivity and
response time for the detector were 0.35 nW/
√
Hz 28 V/W and ~9 µs, respectively
[20].
Bandurin et al. also fabricated and investigated the terahertz sensing properties of a
GFET device. Firstly, bilayer graphene (BLG) was sandwiched between thick layers
of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) using dry-peel technique. This composite was then
transferred on a Si–SiO 2 stack followed by antenna definition using photolithography.
The device schematics are shown in Fig. 16. The device exhibited a responsivity and
NEP of 3 kC/W and 0.2 pW/
√
Hz, respectively. The lifetime of the plasmon was
estimated to be ~0.6 ps [21].
Delgado-Notario et al. reported the implementation of non-resonant strainedSi Schottky gated modulation-doped field-effect transistor (MODFET) detector for
sub-THz imaging. Fig. 17 shows the schematic and micrograph of strained-Si quantum well layer, deposited between relaxed Si 0.7 Ge 0.3 layers using molecular beam
epitaxy (MBE). Platinum was used to form the Schottky contact. Under 300 GHz
