Nano-Antenna Modelling Based on Plasmonic Charge Distribution for THz-based 6G Applications

This work is regarding a novel approach for modeling nano-antennas, based on plasmonic charge distribution, for 6G communications operating in THz. We propose to apply boundary-free and generalized substrate mathematical model for properly predicting the THz device operation, as well as understanding its physical behavior, either in the frequency and space domains. Numerical results demonstrate plasmonic resonances up to 47 THz as a function of temperature, which has been varied from 30 to 300 K.
