摘要
In experimental and theoretical studies of terahertz subwavelength "L"-shaped structure, we proposed an unusual-mode current resonance responsible for low-frequency characteristic dip in transmission spectra. Comparing spectral properties of our designed simplified structures with that of split-ring resonators, we attribute this unusual mode to the resonance coupling and splitting under the broken symmetry of the structure. Furthermore, it is found that this phenomenon is also related to not only the spacing between horizontal and vertical sides but also their relative position in "L" structure, showing the weakened coupling and spectral splitting with the increased distance and structure symmetry.
