Reflectionless Plasmonic Right-Angled Waveguide Bend and Divider Using Graphene and Transformation Optics
arXiv:2103.02181 · doi:10.1364/OE.417678
Abstract
In this work, a plasmonic right-angled waveguide bend and divider are proposed. Using the Transformation Optics (TO) approach the transformation media of a bend and a T-shaped divider are obtained. Such media with continuous refractive index are realized with the help of graphene in the terahertz frequency range, key to effectively guiding the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) propagation on the 90 degree curves. Components with such capability are promising for THz device applications.
