A thermopile structure is proposed for the detection of microwave/millimeter wave radiation. The thermopairs in the suggested linear arrangement function as antennas. 5.58 V/W responsivity was achieved at 100 GHz with 40 serial connected thermopairs. The experimentally observed polarity and frequency dependence convincingly verify the proper detector operation.
