Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gallant, A., Zeze, D., Wood, D., Petty, M., Dai, D., & Chamberlain, J. (2007, December). Flexible polymer based artificial materials for terahertz applications. Presented at Joint 32nd International Conference on Infrared and Millimeter Waves, 2007 and the 2007 15th International Conference on Terahertz Electronics. IRMMW-THz., Cardiff, Wales

In this paper we report on the fabrication and testing of arrays of subwavelength apertures which are formed in a highly flexible polymer, PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane). PDMS can be elastically stretched to cause the deformation of any surface features... Read More about Flexible polymer based artificial materials for terahertz applications..

Passband filters for terahertz radiation based on dual metallic photonic structures (2007)
Journal Article
