Surface phasmon (SurfacePlasmonPolaritons, be called for short SPPs) is a kind of light frequency inherence metal with on medium (usually air) interface transmission a kind of special electromagnetic wave。SPPs is a kind of surface wave, has feature two kinds distinct: one, is a kind of evanescent waves along being perpendicular to interface, and the intensity of ripple exponentially reduces, and therefore ripple is bound near interface;Secondly, the transmission wavelength of SPPs is shorter, and therefore it can break through diffraction limit。Research for SPPs had once once been limited in optical band or higher frequency。The plasma frequency of metal is generally all in ultraviolet band, and metal is very big at the dielectric constant of low-frequency range so that electromagnetic skin depth is only small, so, in low-frequency range, metal is similar to perfact conductor (PerfectElectricConductor is called for short PEC)。So that SPPs retrains very poor in the field of metal surface, it is impossible to realize there is effect spread on the metal surface, greatly limit the SPPs application in low-frequency range。Good characteristic due to SPPs, if by the concept of surface plasmons to low-frequency range (microwave or terahertz wave band), contribute to obtaining the guided wave technology of high binding microwave or terahertz signal, and it is highly integrated to realize that the device size of low-frequency range is reduced to sub-wavelength magnitude。In order to realize in low-frequency range, the efficient of ripple being retrained, a kind of on metal the method for etching groove or borehole be suggested, owing to it inherits the relevant nature of SPPs, it is referred to as artificial surface phasmon (SpoofSurfacePlasmonPolaritons is called for short SSPPs)。Its basic thought is the hole digging period profile in metal surface, and size and the interval of hole are much smaller than wavelength, to strengthen electromagnetic osmosis, reduces the plasma frequency of metal surface thereby through the means of effective medium。This method can pass through the transmission of the physical dimension control ripple of structure, has very big potentiality in microwave Terahertz designs。2005, Hibbins et al. confirmed SSPPs phenomenon in microwave section, and subsequently, Williams et al. also demonstrates the existence of SSPPs at terahertz wave band, and new page has been opened in development and application for low frequency SPPs。SSPPs causes the great interest of researcher since then。
Recently, some have many achievements to see each big periodical for the research of the transmission of SpoofSPPs。In these researchs, major part is all passive structure or device, and these devices can not individually complete work, because the transmission of feed efficiency and signal is had certain difficulty by this。Generally, these designs need to combine with microwave Terahertz circuit or device。Therefore, the converting transmission efficiency of guided wave and spp ripple is particularly important。Being devoted to the efficiency that transmission converts, for prism, grating, the research of domino array etc. obtains some achievements successively。But not the mating of wave vector result in transmission conversion efficiency can not reach desirable。In consideration of it, the structure of a kind of gradual change type is suggested to solve the problem that wave vector does not match that with impedance。Secondly, the miniaturization of microwave device is a problem that not can bypass, and plays important function in microwave circuit system designs。British scholar proposes a kind of structure by square bending convolution metal band and realizes the increase of metal minor matters equivalent length, and miniaturization has been done further application by rear Shanghai University Zhou Yongjin。
Co-planar waveguide, as a kind of superior performance, microwave planar transmission line easy to process, is just played a greater and greater role in monolithic integrated microwave circuit, has especially been arrived millimeter wave frequency band, and co-planar waveguide more has the performance advantage that microstrip line is incomparable。Compared with conventional microstrip transmission line, co-planar waveguide has easy making, it is easy to realize series connection passive, that active device is in microwave circuit and parallel connection (need not bore a hole on substrate), it is easy to improve the advantages such as current densities。

When dielectric board material changes, if dielectric constant diminishes, then the restraint performance of electromagnetic energy is weakened by dielectric-slab, causes that the cut-off frequency of wave filter increases。This situation adopts T-slot structure, the equally possible purpose reducing frequency and device miniaturization。
