Innovative device increases responsivity and reduces noise in terahertz detection, suggesting improved sensitivity for 6G systems.
To improve the performance of room‐temperature terahertz detectors, particularly regarding sensitivity and noise characteristics, an innovative detector incorporating a sawtooth array fabricated through femtosecond‐laser direct writing is developed. This device integrates e localized surface plasma effect with the unique properties of a Weyl semimetal within a subwavelength structural framework. The application of a magnetic field combined with laser excitation further enhances carrier mobility, resulting in improved device performance and faster response times. At a frequency of 0.1 THz, the responsivity increases from 1.134 × 10⁵ to 1.192 × 10⁵ V/W, the noise‐equivalent power decreases from 0.436 to 0.414 pW Hz −1/2 , and the response time is reduced from 210 to 49 ms. Additionally, terahertz time‐domain spectroscopy reveals a distinct absorption feature at 0.1 THz, aligning with critical requirements for 6G communication systems. This design presents both a novel conceptual approach and a technological platform for the advancement of high‐performance terahertz detection technologies.
