Plasmonic Arrays Resonating at D-Band Communication Frequencies.

We present systematic experimental studies of the impact of subwavelength structural geometries and electromagnetic field polarization on the resonance behavior of metallic metasurfaces at D-band frequencies. The measured influence of the photoconductive receiver antenna design in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy on the frequency-domain spectral features was analyzed. Numerical simulations reveal distinct resonance characteristics in the D-band regime, where extraordinary amplitude transmission is highly dependent on the array dimensions and field polarization orientation. The metasurface enables significant enhancements in surface electric fields and resonance response, attributed to the effective excitation of strong dipolar modes. These results demonstrate the extraordinary transmission capabilities of subwavelength metallic arrays and provide valuable insights for designing compact, low-loss, and tunable terahertz functional components needed in next-generation communications.
