Abstract

Terahertz waveguide with porous is investigated in the 0.1 - 1.0 THz frequency range. The waveguide has 17 air holes and are arranged air holes throughout the PTFE tubes in a hexagonal lattice structure without defect. We have experimentally confirmed that a terahertz signal can also be guided in a core-free waveguide and investigate the propagation characteristics of porous PTFE tubes of different lengths experimentally and numerically analyzed their optical properties using finite element method with perfectly matched layer. This porous tube with PTFE exhibit very low effective material loss than bulk material and experimentally measure high transmittance in the low frequency region.
