Abstract

Using THz time-domain spectroscopy, we study plasmonic band gaps in periodic metal arrays of slits. Femtosecnd machining system guarantees good quality sub millimeter structures for THz spectroscopy. Fabry-Perot effect enhances the transmission when the two resonances cross but does not alter the surface plasmon peak positions.
