▎ 摘  要

We analyze the operation of terahertz (THz) bolometric detectors based on field-effect transistor (FET) structures with graphene channels (GCs) and black-phosphorus and black-arsenic gate barrier layers (BLs). Such GC FETs use two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) heating by the incident THz radiation leading to the thermionic emission of hot electrons from the GC via the BL into the gate. Due to the excitation of plasmonic oscillations in the GC by THz signals, the GC FET detector response can be pronouncedly resonant, leading to elevated values of the detector responsivity. The lateral thermal conductivity of the 2DEG and its Peltier cooling can markedly affect the GC FET responsivity, in particular its spectral characteristics. These effects should be considered for the optimization of GC FET detectors.
