Abstract

Aperture coupling Apertures Electromagnetic propagation Electromagnetic spectrum Numerical analysis Optical coupling Optical fiber losses optical fibers Optical losses Photonic band gap Photonic bandgap fibers photonic bandgap materials Propagation losses Terahertz radiation
Hollow core photonic bandgap fibres (HC-PBGFs) are numerically investigated in order to obtain low loss wave-guiding and good aperture field distribution in the terahertz region (0.1-10 THz) of the electromagnetic spectrum. The purity of the aperture field distribution at the HC-PBGF section combined with low loss propagation and high coupling efficiency with free-space propagating Gaussian beams suggest a possible employment of such a structure as aperture antennas, for possible feed systems in THz applications and in THz wireless sensing.
