  1. 21. Planar-Goubau-line components for terahertz applications

    Författare :Juan Cabello Sánchez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; planar Goubau line; Through-Reflect-Line TRL calibration; stopband filter; on-wafer measurements; vector network analyzers VNA ; silicon membrane; power divider; Impedance-matched load; terahertz spectroscopy; microfluidic channels;

    Sammanfattning : Terahertz-wave technology has a broad range of applications, including radio astronomy, telecommunications, security, medical applications, pharmaceutical quality control, and biological sensing. However, the sources, detectors, and components are less efficient at this frequency band due to parasitic effects and increased total losses, which hinder the performance of terahertz systems.
