▎ 摘  要

The concept and analysis of a graphene plasmonic nanoantenna over a SiO2/Si substrate at terahertz (THz) band are presented. The performance enhancement of the antenna is proposed by dynamically controlling the surface conductivity of graphene using an electric field effect. The controlling ability of graphene via gate voltage enables frequency reconfiguration of the antenna over a wide range of 2.56-4.98THz. The performance merits of the antenna are its high directivity, broadside radiation pattern, low reflection coefficient, stable impedance and high miniaturisation. The proposed graphene plasmonic antenna has potential to be used for THz communication.
