Terahertz electromagnetic wave transmission through random arrays of single rectangular holes and slits in thin metallic sheets.
We report on the observation of terahertz transparency in random arrays of the single rectangular holes and slits with the areal coverage of only 12%. The terahertz transparency occurs at the fundamental shape resonance of the rectangular holes and confirms the theoretical predictions of earlier works of García-Vidal et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 103901 (2005)] on single rectangular holes and of Ruan and Qiu [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 233901 (2006)] on random arrays of holes.
