Abstract

This paper proposes a Corrugated Substrate Integrated Waveguide (CSIW) based slot antenna for THz application. A CPW to CSIW transition is realized and the antenna operates around 0.9 THz. The antenna uses Cyclo Olefin Copolymer (COC) as a dielectric material which exhibit a loss tangent of 0.0007 at THz frequencies. The proposed slot antenna has realized gain of 5.9 dB when using Gold. The radiation, as well as total efficiency of the antenna, is around 50% using Gold which increases to 85% with a gain of 7.6 dB by replacing it with Graphene.
