    A Fermi-level managed barrier (FMB) diode was used for the heterodyne detection of terahertz waves for the first time. A quasi-optical module integrating an FMB diode and a broadband trans-impedance amplifier exhibited an intermediate frequency bandwidth of 11 GHz. A very low noise-equivalent-power of 1.1 × 10−18 W/Hz was achieved at ∼300 GHz with a very low local oscillator power of 6 × 10−6 W.
