Glucose refractometer based on terahertz resonant waveguide grating structure by Borwen You, Che-Chu Hsieh

“…A resonant waveguide grating structure based on periodically perforated metal slits (PPMSs) was specified in experiments for metal-slit cavity resonance in the frequency range of 0.1–1 terahertz (THz), including the structural symmetry, thickness and distributed length of a metal-slit array. In dielectric-medium perturbation experiments, 2D spatial confinement of a metal-slit cavity resonance wave in a large area was characterized with distinct transmittance dip at 0.5 THz and relevant redshift effect of glucose dispersion responsivity. …”
