Metamaterial-mediated terahertz surface waves with strong confinement

We present experimental und numerical investigations on the excitation, optimization and propagation of terahertz surface waves on silicon substrates. A single metamaterial layer is used to enhance the spatial confinement of the surface wave at the interface between air and silicon. The electric ter...

Zusammenfassung:We present experimental und numerical investigations on the excitation, optimization and propagation of terahertz surface waves on silicon substrates. A single metamaterial layer is used to enhance the spatial confinement of the surface wave at the interface between air and silicon. The electric terahertz field of the surface wave is measured by a 2D near field scan.
