Abstract

Disclosed in the present invention is a terahertz kinetic inductance bolometer, including a superconducting thin film layer, a terahertz antenna, a cutoff layer and a Si substrate, wherein the superconducting thin film layer and the terahertz antenna are respectively deposited on the cutoff layer, and the cutoff layer is deposited on the Si substrate; the superconducting thin film layer includes a superconducting feeder line, an inter-digital capacitor and an inductor coil; the inter-digital capacitor is connected with the inductor coil in parallel to form an oscillation circuit; the terahertz antenna is adjacent to the inductor coil and is used to convert a received terahertz signal into heat so that the inductor coil produces an inductance change; a resonance frequency in the inter-digital capacitor changes through the inductance change; and the superconducting feeder line receives the varying resonance frequency, through which an light intensity of the terahertz signal can be obtained to complete the detection of the terahertz signal. The terahertz kinetic inductance bolometer can detect the terahertz signal accurately and is less affected by the temperature. The present invention also provides a preparation method of the terahertz kinetic inductance bolometer and a terahertz detection system.
