초록
본 논문에서는 높은 입력 임피던스를 가지는 테라헤르츠 Yagi-Uda 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안된 Yagi-Uda 안테나는 두께가 얇은 기판 위에 설계하여 기판의 비유전율에 의한 안테나의 임피던스 저하를 줄이고 Yagi-Uda 안테나 고유의 복사패턴을 가지도록 하였 다. 전 파장 길이를 가지는 U-형태의 다이폴을 driver로 사용하여 공진주파수에서 4,400 Ω 정도의 높은 입력저항을 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 제안된 Yagi-Uda 안테나는 기존의 테라헤르츠 안테나들에 비하여 증가된 테라헤르츠파 출력을 얻을 수 있다.
Abstract
In this paper, a THz Yagi-Uda antenna with high input impedance is designed. By placing the antenna on a thin substrate, end-fire radiation patterns with high antenna impedance can be obtained even when the substrate has high relative dielectric constant. The proposed Yagi-Uda antenna has high input resistance of approximately 4,400 Ω at the resonance frequency which is obtained by using a U-shaped dipole as a driver element. It is expected that the Yagi-Uda antenna on a thin substrate can achieve much higher terahertz output power than the conventional THz antennas.
