Abstract
Novel hollow‐core THz waveguides featuring hyperuniform disordered reflectors are proposed, fabricated, and characterized. The reflector comprises aperiodically positioned dielectric cylinders connected with dielectric bridges. The proposed waveguides are fabricated using a 3D MultiJet printer. Optical properties of the fabricated waveguides are investigated numerically using finite element method, as well as experimentally using terahertz time‐domain spectroscopy. The results confirm that proposed waveguides exhibit sizable photonic bandgaps (21%) even with relatively low refractive index contrast (resin/air). Position of the bandgaps can be easily tuned by varying reflector geometrical parameters.
