Here we present results from key aspects of our interest in using micromachined devices in the THz region. First, our early work on making filters from rods of gold-coated SU8 is described. Pass (up to 97%) and stop bands can be observed which are theoretically underpinned by both FDTD and complex band structure simulations. Second, there is a discussion of how THz radiation passes through two-dimensional periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures. In particular, the geometry of the arrays has been studied with time-domain spectroscopy. A time-of-flight model is presented which can be used to provide insight into the operation of these arrays and has implications for the optimum design of THz plasmonic sensors. Finally, we report the THz ‘super’ extraordinary transmission properties of an optimised hybrid subwavelength aperture array, surrounded by subwavelength grooves.

In this paper, some virtuallab experiments have been done, in which the we get extraordinary transmission phenomenon by adding dielectric coating in the subwavelength periodic metallic slits. It is proved that dielectric coatings on the metal films can excite a surface wave which is transmitted in the metal slits by dielectric waveguides, and the symmetric wrapped dielectric cladding around the metal gains almost 10 times as great transmission as two surfaces cladding does. The paper explores a preliminary physics mechanism of this extraordinary transmission, which gets some valuable results in the application fields.

AbstractWe review our recent works on a particular type of metamaterials (MTMs), which are metallic plates drilled with periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures typically in fractal-like complex shapes. We first show that such MTMs can well mimic plasmonic metals in terms of surface plasmon properties, but with plasmon resonances solely dictated by their aperture geometries rather than the constitutional materials. We then develop an effective-medium description for such plasmonic MTMs based on the mode expansion theory. Based on these theoretical understandings, we show that such MTMs exhibit several interesting applications, such as superlensing, hyperlensing, and enhancing light-matter interactions, which are demonstrated by microwave experiments or full-wave simulations.
