Abstract
A description of edge-coupled membrane terahertz photonic transmitters based on metal-semiconductor-metal travelling-wave photodetectors was presented. Printed-circuit antennas were also used in the fabrication. It was found that the photonic transmitters could eliminate the requirement of Si lenses. It was possible to attain a high-optical-to-THz power conversion efficiency.
