摘要

This paper presents a planar multimodal periodic filter that is constructed from alternating sections of coplanar stripline and the odd-mode of a finite-ground plane coplanar waveguide constructed on a 1 µm silicon nitride substrate to facilitate operation at THz frequencies. The multimodal configuration differs from standard single-mode periodic filters and enables flexible designs and the possibility for active control of the filter characteristics. For this proof-of-concept, we present the relevant theory and design procedures required to develop a band-stop filter that has a center frequency of \( f_{\text {c}} \) f c = 0.8 THz and a bandwidth of \( \Delta f \) Δ f = 0.07 THz. We find good agreement between theory, simulation, and experiment.
