Based on the propagation theory of edge guided modes, the analysis procedure of this structure is introduced. The numerical results demonstrate the tunability of the resonant frequency by changing the DC bias magnetic field applied to the ferrite. In contrast to previous work, the proposed structure is easy to design and fabricate and does not require a chip component.展开更多

As the air gap is larger than the resonant wavelength of high order cavity mode in the single deep grooved waveguide, only the fundamental cavity mode can be excited and single resonance can be observed in the transmission spectrum. Based on above observations, a tunable multiband terahertz（THz）notch filter has been proposed and the variation of air gap has turned out to be an effective method to select the band number. Experimental data and simulated results verify this band number tunability. This mechanical control mechanism for electromagnetic induced transparency（EIT） will open a door to design the tunable THz devices.展开更多
