ALAdam Liebendorfer

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a simpler waveguide design for terahertz communication, avoiding traditional tapered spikes.
  • Developed a substrateless slot waveguide using effective medium theory.
  • Assessed alignment stability and fabrication potential for scalability.
  • The new design shows reduced misalignment issues compared to traditional tapered designs.
  • Improved scalability for fabrication suggests wider application potential in terahertz communication.

Abstract

Simpler, substrateless design draws on effective medium theory to deliver a waveguide that’s less prone to misalignment with much more potential for scaled fabrication.
