TITLE: On-Wafer THz Probes

Requesting Laboratory / Division / Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division High-Speed Measurements Group (672.03)

General Statement of Need:

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)/Communications Technology Laboratory (CTL) need to test nonlinear on-wafer devices to 1 THz. As such, CTL needs on-wafer probes for probing devices from 500 GHz to 1100 GHz. These WR1.5 and WR1.0 probes will be used on custom on-wafer probe station for on-wafer THz electronics. The probe station uses VDI extender heads with a vertical E-field orientation. The station can only control the height of the probe to within about 10 µm, so the probe must be able to tolerate 20 µm of overtravel. The probe should have a bias tee, standard 25 µm pitch, no more than 10 dB of insertion loss and a return loss no greater than -15 dB.

Items and Ancillary Services:

Item 1: WR1.5 On-Wafer Probes Quantity: 4 EACH Specifications: 1.1 Operate between 500 – 750 GHz

1.2 Capable of 20 µm of overtravel

1.3 Have a bias tee
