In this thesis, integrated antennas and receivers are designed, fabricated, and tested at millimeter- and submillimeter-wave frequencies. A new antenna, the integrated corner-cube antenna is developed employing silicon micromachining techniques. A millimeter-wave version is successfully tested from 180-270 GHz and a submillimeter-wave antenna is tested at 2.54 THz (lambda = 119 μm). Also, the first successful submillimeter-wave endfire slotline antennas are fabricated using a 1.7 mum-thick dielectric membrane substrate and successfully tested at 348 and 802 GHz. Room temperature integrated Schottky-diode receivers are presented covering the frequency range from 180 GHz to 760 GHz. Monolithic double-slot antenna receivers on a silicon substrate lens are designed, fabricated, and tested at 250 GHz and 760 GHz, and a wideband log-periodic receiver on a silicon substrate lens is successfully demonstrated from 184 GHz to 760 GHz. The double-slot receiver is ideally suited for linear (1 x N or 2 x N) or small two-dimensional imaging arrays. At 258 GHz, the monolithic double-slot receiver resulted in a DSB conversion loss of 7.8 dB and a DSB noise temperature of 1600 K which are within 2-3 dB of the world's best tuned waveguide receivers.
