Miniature THz Antenna Design

The demand for miniature terahertz (THz) antennas has surged in recent years due to the expanding applications of THz technology in communication, imaging, sensing, and spectroscopy. Designing miniature antennas operating at THz frequencies presents unique challenges due to the characteristics of THz radiation and the constraints imposed by size limitations. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the theory, simulation, and fabrication techniques involved in the design of miniature THz antennas. We discuss the fundamentals of THz antenna design, explore simulation tools for optimization, examine fabrication methods for realizing miniature antennas, and highlight recent advancements in the field. By understanding these key aspects, we can develop compact and efficient THz antennas tailored to specific application requirements.
