We developed an easy-to-fabricate polypropylene waveguide prism that spatially separates terahertz (THz) frequencies using waveguide dispersion, enabling new THz system applications.

Area of Science:

  • Optics and Photonics
  • Terahertz (THz) Technology
  • Waveguide Optics

Background:

  • Terahertz (THz) frequency range (0.1-0.7 THz) requires efficient dispersive elements.
  • Existing THz dispersive elements can be complex or limited in application.
  • Waveguide dispersion offers a potential mechanism for frequency separation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and fabricate a novel waveguide prism for spatial separation of THz frequencies.
  • To investigate the use of waveguide dispersion for THz frequency manipulation.
  • To demonstrate the practical application of the fabricated prism in THz systems.

Main Methods:

  • Electromagnetic field simulations were used to determine diffraction properties.
  • Waveguide parameters were optimized to maximize frequency dispersion.
