This standard gives specifications for the waveguide (including aperture dimensions,frequency range, cut-off frequency, etc). This standard considers the tolerances of the waveguide aperture dimensions and the effect these have on the electrical properties (in terms of return loss, transmission loss, etc) of the waveguide.Show More
We demonstrate through simulation the excitation of guided modes on a gold waveguide by a perpendicularly oriented Si3N4 waveguide. We can achieve 55% coupling efficiency for a 70 nm Au nanowire, and the ability for mode selection on larger Au nanowires supporting multiple modes.Show More
Rectangular Waveguides are standard RF interconnects, but are increasingly difficult to manufacture and align at higher frequencies. 3D printing, which is constantly improving, allows for intricate shapes and compact designs, thus offering potential for future high-frequency waveguides. This abstract evaluates the performance of metallic 3D printed rectangular waveguides made of steel at various f...Show More
A series of documentary standards has recently been published (the IEEE 1785 series) that provides specification details for rectangular metallic waveguides used at frequencies from 110 GHz to at least 3.3 THz. This includes values of electrical loss (both reflection and transmission) for these waveguides. However, the values specified in these standards are based on calculated (i.e. modelled) per...Show More

Five vertically stacked thin metal layers are used to form ...Show More
Designs of hollow-core rectangular, circular, and elliptical waveguides with inner coating of silver and polystyrene (PS) are presented for low-loss terahertz guidance. The PS thickness deposited over silver is optimized to achieve the lowest possible loss for each waveguide at the frequency of 2.5 THz. The mode also tends to be a near-Gaussian in shape, easy for coupling to transmitter and receiv...Show More
In this paper, we propose to use a wedge-shaped plasmonic waveguide with a metallic double-layer structure for improving the propagation length of surface plasmon polaritons. The wedge silicon waveguide is covered by a first layer of Ag and by a second layer of Au outermost in which the former has a good lightwave guiding property but unstable to the operating medium and the latter is more stable ...Show More
