Abstract
The terahertz-wave connector includes: a 2D-PC slab; lattice points periodically arranged in the 2D-PC slab, the lattice points for diffracting the THz waves in PBG frequencies of photonic band structure of the 2D-PC slab in order to prohibit existence in a plane of the 2D-PC slab; a 2D-PC waveguide disposed in the 2D-PC slab and formed with a line defect of the lattice points; and an adiabatic mode converter disposed at the edge face of the 2D-PC slab to which the 2D-PC waveguide extended, the 2D-PC waveguide extended to the adiabatic mode converter. There is provided also the THz-wave IC to which such a terahertz-wave connector is applied.
