Abstract

We studied the performance of hot-electron bolometers (HEBs) operating at THz optical frequencies based on superconducting niobium nitride films. We report on large optical bandwidth measurement of the voltage response of the detector carried out with different THz sources. We show that the impulse response of the fully packaged HEB at 7.5 K has a 3 dB cut-off around 2 GHz, but a considerable detection capability is also observed above 30 GHz recorded in mixing mode operation by using a THz frequency comb quantum cascade laser
