Multiband transparency effect induced by toroidal excitation in a strongly coupled planar terahertz metamaterial

Abstract The multiband transparency effect in terahertz (THz) domain has intrigued the scientific community due to its significance in developing THz multiband devices. In this article, we have proposed a planar metamaterial geometry comprised of a toroidal split ring resonator (TSRR) flanked by two...
