Abstract
A photonic integrated circuit is disclosed comprising: a dielectric substrate (); a dielectric waveguide arrangement () on the substrate () for guiding terahertz (THz) waves; and a local functionalization () having a metallization in a surface area of the dielectric waveguide arrangement (). The metallization is localized along a propagation direction of the THz waves to allow a metallization-free propagation of the THz wave outside of the local functionalization.
