Problems solved by technology

[0005] Traditional reconfigurable filters are based on coaxial lines or microstrip lines, fabricated on printed circuit boards, bulky, unfavorable for IC process integration and limited to below submillimeter wave frequencies
In addition, traditional adjustable resonant frequency filters generally use PIN diode switches or FET switches to achieve adjustable filter frequency, and these switches require a large number of bias circuits, which makes the filter have large insertion loss and large size, which is not suitable for small Receiver front-end applications

Abstract

The invention discloses a tunable terahertz waveguide filter based on a bimorph thermal actuator. The tunable terahertz waveguide filter comprises an E surface longitudinal diaphragm, the bimorph thermal actuator and a rectangular waveguide, wherein the E surface longitudinal diaphragm is horizontally installed in the middle of the inner cavity of the rectangular waveguide; and the bimorph thermal actuator is horizontally installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the rectangular waveguide and positioned below the E surface longitudinal diaphragm. The E surface longitudinal diaphragm and the bimorph thermal actuator are installed inside the inner cavity of the rectangular waveguide, so that the tunable terahertz waveguide filter has the advantages of high working frequency, wide tuning range, easiness in manufacturing, strong universality and the like and has a good application prospect in a terahertz system.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of terahertz passive devices, and specifically relates to an adjustable terahertz waveguide filter based on a double-layer bending thermal actuator. Background technique [0002] Terahertz waves (THz) generally refer to electromagnetic radiation waves with a frequency in the range of 0.1 to 10 THz (wavelength from 3 mm to 30 μm). It coincides with the millimeter wave in the long wave band, and coincides with the infrared wave in the short wave band. It can be seen that the terahertz wave occupies a very special position in the electromagnetic wave spectrum, and its research has extremely important academic value and application prospects. Wide attention from various countries. It has great scientific value and broad application prospects in object imaging, environmental monitoring, radio astronomy, broadband mobile communications, especially in military fields such as satellite communications and military radars...
