Terahertz angle sensor based on the asymmetry coupling of the square and L-shaped structure

Abstract

This letter presents a terahertz angle sensor using a rectangular and double L-shaped structure. The structure unit of the sensor consists of a typical metal-medium structure, with the top metal pattern comprising a rectangle and a double L-shaped structure. At the same time, the bottom layer is made of polyimide, a dielectric material. By varying the position and number of L-shaped structures, a terahertz angle sensor based on a spring-shaped structure is created. The terahertz angle sensor achieves a Q value of 120.6 with a sensitivity of 3.45 GHz per degree. The terahertz angle sensor offers high-angle resolution and may find applications in terahertz communication, imaging, sensing, and other related fields.
