Abstract

Although graphene can operate in the ballistic transport regime at room temperature, there are very few devices harnessing this property. Here we present a novel device called the ballistic rectifier which circumvents the problem of opening a bandgap in graphene. Based on the device theory, we propose four different asymmetric planar structures. All devices are working and show responsivity higher than 1,000 V/W at room temperature, with noise-equivalent power as low as 4.16 pW/Hz <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1/2</sup> . These properties make GBRs a suitable candidate for THz detection.
