We show that the physical mechanism of the detection is related to the plasma waves excited in the transistor channel. The detection is enhanced by increasing the drain current and driving the transistor into saturation regime. These results clearly show that plasma wave nanometer-size transistors can be used as detectors in all-solid-state terahertz systems where quantum cascade lasers act as sources. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-00767829/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-00767829/file/a120z5p32.pdf %L hal-00767829 %U https://hal.science/hal-00767829 %~ CNRS %~ IES %~ L2C %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM-2015-2021
