Abstract
A semiconductor element comprising: an antenna array that is provided with a plurality of antennas each including a semiconductor layer having an electromagnetic wave gain or carrier nonlinearity with respect to a terahertz wave; and a coupling line that synchronizes adjacent antennas in the antenna array with each other at a frequency of the terahertz wave, wherein the coupling line includes a plurality of first regions connected to the adjacent antennas respectively and a second region provided between the plurality of first regions, wherein the second region has impedance different from impedance of each of the first regions, and wherein the second region has a loss larger than a loss of the individual first region at a frequency other than a resonance frequency of the antenna array.
