We report the first ever terahertz monolithic integrated circuit amplifier based on 25-nm InP high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) process demonstrating amplification at 1 THz (1000 GHz) with 9-dB measured gain at 1 THz. This milestone was achieved with a 25-nm InP HEMT transistor, which exhibits 3.5-dB maximum available gain at 1 and 1.5 THz projected $f_{mathrm {mathbf {MAX}}}$ .
