Abstract :
The main properties of planar Goubau waveguides in the THz range are reported. Attenuation, dispersion and electric field confinement are measured using a guided-wave spectroscopy system based on a freely positionable electro-optic detector, and simulated using 3D electromagnetic field solver.
