Abstract :
Small pitch, thick strut inhibited coupling fibres are investigated as potential terahertz waveguides. These exhibit narrow transmission windows compared to regular inhibited coupling fibres. We investigated using resonant capillaries as waveguides to keep the transmission window open. We then considered a double capillary structure to shield the inner capillary.
