• abstract: We propose a Si-CMOS terahertz image sensor to solve the paucity of low-cost detectors. Here the imager chip consists of imaging pixel array and column ADCs. The imaging pixel consists of an on-chip antenna and an amplifier acting as envelope detector. We fabricated the pixel array with two-types of antennas which are a microstrip-patch and a folded-slot types, using 0.18-μm CMOS process. Measurement results show that the folded-slot antenna has over 0 dBi gain at 900 GHz, and a broader bandwidth from 850 GHz to 1.05 THz.
