For the transverse electromagnetic TEM (TM0) geometry, the two opposing metal cylinders exhibit an amplitude transmission comparable to that of the cylindrical silicon lens coupled parallel-plate waveguide, but in the transverse-electric orientation the two-cylinder coupler shows much better amplitude transmission.enTerahertz radiationmicrowave photonicsoptical couplersoptical waveguide621Terahertz two-cylinder waveguide coupler for transverse-magnetic and transverse-electric mode operationjournal article
