A thin, low-cost, double-layer frequency-selective surface (FSS) bandpass filter has been designed, fabricated, and measured for operation in the terahertz band. The present FSS structure is composed of double-layer tin foil with a hexagonal lattice array of circular holes. A flat passband is observed with a 3-dB bandwidth of 0.20 THz from 0.81 to 1.01 THz, which is about 22% relative to the center frequency. This bandpass filter based on double-layer FSS structures achieved average insertion loss of 0.7-dB and 106.31-dB/THz band-edge steepness. We have found good agreement between theoretical calculations and experimental results.
