Abstract
Metamaterial research has seen some unprecedented growth in the last two decades. Yet, compact and low-cost metamaterial devices are still infancy. Implementing the designs in a CMOS process will be a right step towards that goal although a huge engineering challenge. In this chapter, a method to implement a metamaterial based terahertz detector is demonstrated. A combination of electromagnetic and circuit simulations shows the viability of such a design, with the hope of serving as a reference for metamaterial designers who are interested in using the CMOS process.
