Abstract

A terahertz transceiver, comprising at least a first and a second antenna, wherein the first and/or the second antenna is a dipole antenna comprising a dipole section, wherein the dipole section has a gap through which light can be radiated onto the photoconductive material, and wherein a first ending of the dipole section is connected to a first feedline and a second ending of the dipole section is connected to a second feedline, the feedlines (extending with an angle to the dipole section. The first and/or the second antenna has an asymmetric design, wherein a first section of at least one of the feedlines extending on one side of the dipole section is longer than a second section of the at least one feedline extending on the other side of the dipole section and/or at least one of the feedlines extends on one side of the dipole section, only.
