title: A mode-matching analysis of dielectric-filled resonant cavities coupled to terahertz parallel-plate waveguides.
abstract: We use the mode-matching technique to study parallel-plate waveguide resonant cavities that are filled with a dielectric. We apply the generalized scattering matrix theory to calculate the power transmission through the waveguide-cavities. We compare the analytical results to experimental data to confirm the validity of this approach.
