Outline of Final Research Achievements

We explored the generation of the plasmonic boom, a kind of plasmon instability utilizing the super velocity phenomenon of collective charge density waves of two-dimensional electrons in monolayer graphene and their application to the generation and amplification of terahertz electromagnetic wave radiations. An asymmetric dual-grating-gate structure was introduced into the graphene channel field-effect transistor to spatially and periodically modulate the electron drift velocity and the plasma wave velocity crossing over each other at the periodic boundaries. It is theoretically expected that intense shock waves (plasmonic boom) such as supersonic will occur at the moment the drift velocity exceeds the plasma wave velocity. We designed and fabricated the device and experimentally verified the occrrence of the plasmonic instability driven giant light amplification of stimulated emission of terahertz radiation at room temperature for the first time.
