Zusammenfassung: | The glass-based THz optical waveguides (10) disclosed herein are used to guide optical signals having a THz frequency in the range from 0.1 THz to (10) THz and include a core (20) surrounded by a cladding (30). The core has a diameter D1 in the range from (30) μm to 10 mm and is made of fused silica glass having a refractive index n1. The cladding is made of either a polymer or a glass or glass soot and has a refractive index n2 |
