Terahertz antennas play a vital role in cutting-edge communication and sensing due to their ability to utilize the terahertz frequency spectrum, which allows for rapid data transfer and accurate imaging. Creating terahertz antennas is challenging because of their short wavelengths, which require careful manufacturing methods to meet performance goals. Moreover, the limitations of materials and the losses in the terahertz spectrum present significant challenges, along with the high cost of materials, necessitating creative design strategies to overcome these barriers. In this chapter, we introduce a new type of high-efficiency and versatile octagon-slotted circle-shaped antenna, which is then subjected to a comparative study with various materials such as polyimide, high-resistivity float-zone silicon (HRFZ-Si), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Teflon, and Zeonor, among others, to test its capabilities for high-speed communication. In summary, this antenna offers the benefits of high gain, ease of construction, greater efficiency, and a wider bandwidth.
