The terahertz frequency range of the electromagnetic spectrum holds great promise for many applications including sensing, imaging, and communications. However, the availability of solid-state sources with reasonable power levels is well recognized as one of the major obstacles for systems applications in this frequency range. Here, the state of the art of active two-terminal devices is reviewed and high-lighted with some exemplary experimental results. The potential, capabilities, and limitations of two-terminal devices regarding power generation at terahertz frequencies are discussed. Furthermore, a new device is described that has the potential of circumventing some of the limitations of existing devices.
