  • Abstract
    A set of antenna geometries for future integrated arrays at terahertz frequencies, based on two fabrication techniques is presented. The first technique consists in an advanced laser micro-fabrication, allowing fabricating advanced 3D geometries but may not be cost-efficient for large arrays. The second one is based in photolithographic processes, allowing the fabrication of arrays on a single wafer in parallel.
