Abstract
We report emissions of circular polarized electromagnetic waves from cylindrically shaped mesa structures of the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ. The frequency range of circularly polarized emission of a cylindrical mesa with notched sides is between 400 and 430 GHz, which is wider than expected by the patch antenna theory. Three maxima recognized in emission intensity are presumably attributed to excitations of fundamental orthogonal modes and circularly polarized modes. Along with the demonstration of circularly polarized emission from truncated edge square mesas, the obtained results provide a wide variety of engineering designs of compact and solid-state electromagnetic sources which are able to generate circularly-polarized terahertz waves.
