Department of Physics, Capital Normal University, Beijing, 100008) Abstract:In the present article, Ag microcone antenna and its arrays are designed according to the requirement of wide bandwidth terahertz irradiation property. Moment method is employed to analyze the solution process of the integrate equation of the irradiated electric field. And CST microwave studio software is employed to simulate the terahertz irradiation property of Ag microcone antenna array. Theoretical analysis and simulation results both manifest that single Ag cone antenna of microscale size can irradiate a wide bandwidth THz wave with the gain of 22.7dBi, while its corresponding antenna array with proper configuration can further improve the radiation pattern and enhance the gain to 42.5dBi. The theoretical analysis and CST simulation results will be useful for the guidance of experimental investigation of terahertz irradiation sources.
