  • Abstract
    A high-quality-factor quasi-optical resonator operating at 650 GHz is used to measure the conductivity of mechanically roughened metal surfaces. The results explore the effective conductivity of metals in the terahertz regime when the surface roughness is on the order of the skin depth.
