Conventional semiconductor‐based photomixers are limited by the carrier transit‐time‐roll‐off and the RC‐roll‐off of the device‐capacitance. We have developed a THz‐photomixer which can overcome both limitations and proves far superior to a conventional pin‐photomixer. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
