Abstract
A THz antenna array has a plurality of THz antennae, a THz antenna having a photoconductive region and a first electrode and a second electrode which are arranged interspaced from each other via a spacer region that extends laterally across at least a part of the photoconductive region. In order to simplify the structure and facilitate its production, a lateral region between adjacent THz antennae of the array is not photoconductive. It is especially free from photoconductive material.
