Abstract
Provided are an apparatus and method of generating a terahertz (THz) signal using a directly-modulated laser. An apparatus of generating a THz signal includes a first directly-modulated laser configured to output a local oscillator (LO) signal, a second directly-modulated laser configured to receive a baseband signal used as data and optically modulate the baseband signal, a band-pass filter configured to filter a spectral component of the baseband signal optically modulated and outputted through the second directly-modulated laser by using a specific frequency bandwidth, a coupler configured to couple the baseband signal filtered through the band-pass filter and the LO signal to each other, and a uni-travelling-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) configured to generate a THz signal by beating the baseband signal and the LO signal coupled to each other.
