摘要
We present two solutions to the challenge of radiation loss of slot-lines at terahertz frequencies: using a slot-line in a homogeneous medium, and using a slot-line on a layered substrate. A theoretical analysis of the slot-line in a homogeneous medium as a terahertz transmission line is presented. The absorption coefficient is obtained in terms of the waveguide dimensions using the field distribution of the slot-line. Results show that the slot-line in a homogeneous medium and the slot-line on a layered substrate can be effective transmission lines for terahertz waves with 2 cm(-1) and 3 cm(-1) absorption due to conductor loss. Full-wave numerical simulations using the Finite Element Method (FEM) are applied to validate the theory. (C) 2011 Optical Society of America
