ABSTRACT
In terahertz (THz) photonics, there is an ongoing effort to develop thin, compact devices such as dielectric photonic crystal (PhC) slabs with desirable light–matter interactions. However, previous works in THz PhC have been limited rigid substrates thicknesses <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <mml:mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mml:mo>∼</mml:mo> </mml:mrow> <mml:mn>100</mml:mn> <mml:mspace width="thinmathspace"/> <mml:mi mathvariant="normal">s</mml:mi> </mml:math> of micrometers. Dielectric shown possess in-plane modes that are excited by external radiation produce sharp guided-mode resonances minimal absorption for applications sensors, optics, and lasers. Here we confirm the existence guided a membrane-type slab subwavelength ( <mml:msub> <mml:mi>λ</mml:mi> <mml:mn>0</mml:mn> </mml:msub> <mml:mo>/</mml:mo> <mml:mn>6</mml:mn> <mml:mo>−</mml:mo> <mml:mn>12</mml:mn> ) flexible polyimide films.
