Abstract

This contribution presents a 0.26 THz power unit in a 0.13 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology. This submillimeter-wave frequency power unit is composed of a 2-stage 0.13 THz amplifier integrated together with 1-stage frequency doubler. In an active submillimeter-wave frequency array, the size of the power unit is critical. In this work, a compact power unit is achieved through on-chip broadside transformers. With this compact solution, the area of core part of this power unit is 110 × 900μm 2 and the output power at 0.26 THz is 0 dBm.
