摘要：
We report a novel terahertz (THz) detector with a high-Tc superconducting (HTS) Josephson junction. This detector was fabricated using a YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-delta) grain boundary junction. Clear THz signals induced by THz-pulse radiation from an ultrafast photoconductive antenna excited by femtosecond optical pulses were observed. We investigated the characteristics of the detector by changing the parameters of THz radiation such as pump laser power for the THz emitter and THz polarization. The results indicate that the detector mainly detects the THz electric fields. This is the first demonstration of a detection of pulsed THz electric fields using an HTS Josephson junction.
