(× 5) operating between 440 GHz and 490 GHz. By epitaxial transfer of InP-based HBV
material structure onto silicon-on-insulator (SOI), a uniform and accurate thickness (20 μm)
of the frequency quintupler chip is achieved. In a single stage this device delivers 2.8 mW of
output power at 474 GHz, when pumped with 400 mW at 94.75 GHz, corresponding to
conversion efficiency of 0.75%. The present device exhibits a 3-dB bandwidth of 4%.
