Abstract

Resonant structures such as antennas are key elements in RF and microwave circuits and systems and have also been used at higher frequencies such as Terahertz and even optical frequencies. One of the disadvantages of using antennas at high frequencies is that the fabrication becomes more complicated due to the use of lithographic techniques such as electron-beam lithography. In this work the possibility of using self-assembled nanostructures as resonant elements is explored along with its applications at Terahertz frequencies.
