Abstract
In this paper, a THz Yagi-Uda antenna with high input impedance is designed. By placing the antenna on a thin substrate, end-fire radiation patterns with high antenna impedance can be obtained even when the substrate has high relative dielectric constant. The proposed Yagi-Uda antenna has high input resistance of approximately at the resonance frequency which is obtained by using a U-shaped dipole as a driver element. It is expected that the Yagi-Uda antenna on a thin substrate can achieve much higher terahertz output power than the conventional THz antennas.
