Abstract

Periodic surface lattice (PSL) structures have been fabricated and measured. When the required conditions are met, volume and surface waves can couple to form a cavity eigenmode at a frequency determined by the PSL's parameters. The formation of such eigenmodes is relevant to the realization of high-power mm-wave and THz coherent sources.
