    Researchers developed a novel hollow-core terahertz (THz) waveguide using a hybrid cladding. This design successfully guides a single, x-polarized transverse magnetic (TM2) mode with low propagation and bend losses.

    Area of Science:

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

    Background:

    • Terahertz (THz) waves offer unique properties for spectroscopy and imaging.
    • Efficiently guiding THz waves, especially in a single polarization mode, remains a challenge.
    • Hollow-core waveguides are promising for low-loss THz transmission.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To design and numerically validate a novel hollow-core waveguide.
    • To achieve single linearly polarized mode guidance in the terahertz frequency range.
    • To minimize propagation and bend losses for practical applications.

    Main Methods:

    • Design of a hollow-core waveguide with a hybrid cladding.
    • Inclusion of subwavelength structures (metal wires and air-holes) in the cladding.
