5 December 2012Flexible PMMA pipe for terahertz propagation
We present an experimental study on a flexible terahertz (THz) pipe PMMA waveguide. The attenuation loss of this pipe
at 3.1THz was 9.65dB/m. Further more, bending loss of the pipe waveguides was investigated. The experimental result
shows good transmission properties of the pipe.
