Abstract :
The performance of Goubau lines at submillimetre and terahertz frequency are studied. Both ultra-wide and narrow bandwidth applications are examined and selections of parameters are provided. Characteristics of lines with different dimensions are calculated and displayed. Comparisons with other types of transmission lines are also performed.
