Study of THz-Plasmon hybridization of a loop Yagi-Uda absorber

Abstract In this article we present a three-dimensional loop Yagi-Uda array for efficient, polarization independent and directional absorption of THz radiation over a narrow frequency range (f0 = 0.657 THz & Q factor = 7.5). Unit cell of the array consists of three vertically stacked gold micro...

Sumario:Abstract In this article we present a three-dimensional loop Yagi-Uda array for efficient, polarization independent and directional absorption of THz radiation over a narrow frequency range (f0 = 0.657 THz & Q factor = 7.5). Unit cell of the array consists of three vertically stacked gold micro rings separated from each other by 30 µm thick SU-8 layers. The proposed array also exhibits a filtering response in its transmittance spectrum. The characteristics are explained by plasmon hybridization method. The transmission, reflection and absorption spectra of the structure are measured and they show a good agreement with corresponding simulated results.
