Abstract:Here, we proposed two delay lines consisting of spoof Surface Plasmon Polariton (sSPP) waveguides and C-shaped metamaterials (C-MMs). The delay lines, namely OFF and ON devices, were designed and fabricated. On the OFF device, an sSPP waveguide is capacitively coupled to the C-MMs via an air gap on a high-resistivity silicon substrate. On the ON device, a connection is established between the C-MMs and the sSPP waveguide by metal connectors. The difference in the electrical properties in the coupling between t… Show more
