Short description about the volume

This book is for the devices that work at a very high frequency (submillimeter/ terahertz). Due to high frequency, they have quasi-optical behavior that resembles light in character or behavior that is actually an ultra-short hertzian wave (electromagnetic wave). Hence, the structure of such devices cannot be imagined with simple waveguides, resonators, or any media at very high frequencies because their design will become compact, and also as per practical point of view, it is rather difficult. They cannot work using simple materials like copper, aluminum, etc. This can only be possible using metamaterials, metasurfaces, metal-dielectric combinations, and many more at such a high frequency. Graphene is also one of the options, but because of its chemical potential as well as monolayer structure (nano in size), this is difficult to implement. Special kinds of open structures, like open resonators/open waveguides, are being used for this frequency range.

Coverage

We would request potential contributors to consider submitting valuable contributions for enriching the scholarly content of the intended volume.
The volume will cover an introduction to quasi-optical behavior of microwave devices at submillimeter wave frequency, implementation of quasi optical system in vacuum electron devices, types of materials for quasi-optical behavior of microwave devices, design of interaction structures at high frequency, and application area of submillimeter/terahertz for microwave devices under the quasi-optical zone.
