Abstract :
The presented antennas make use of advanced technologies such as low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy and micromachining for optimised antenna performance in the THz frequency range with respect to the specific requirements. Sophisticated technology in combination with state-of-the-art computational electromagnetic CAD software has been utilised to optimise THz antennas for the application with photomixers.
