This book presents the design theory and method of the silicon-based high-sensitivity broadband receivers in depth and detail, consisting of millimeter-wave radiometer chips and photoelectric receivers which are the most important element for the imaging system, data centers, telecommunication infrastructures and so on. The high-sensitivity broadband receiver as the key modules in application systems not only attracts engineers and researchers in RF and optoelectronic field, but also attracts much attentions from other fields, such as optical, materials and security. This book proposes various silicon-based critical design technologies to break the limitation of silicon devices and improve the sensitivity significantly with broad bandwidth, which are proposed firstly and verified by measurement. With the help of this book, the design details and considerations can be showed to readers, including the undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in receiver technology, researchers and engineers who investigating imaging systems, data centers or other communication applications.weiterlesen
