Abstract

The dependence of the plasmon terahertz resonant frequency in the generation mode on the quasi-Fermi energy in the active (ungated) region of graphene with an inverse charge carrier population and on the Fermi energy in the gated p- and n-type regions in a periodic pin structure based on graphene with injection pumping is theoretically investigated. It is shown that electrically frequency-tunable nanoscale plasmon graphene amplifiers and generators operating in a broad terahertz frequency range at room temperature can be designed.
