Abstract
This paper gives a brief description of the mathematical techniques used to define plasmonics. The kinetic theory using Vlasov equation is one that gives the concept of plasma generation. Plasmonic antennas better suited for THz applications has added advantages in terms of bandwidth. Taking Graphene patch antenna, which is one of the plasmonic material, is designed in the THz range. This antenna gives wide bandwidth in GHz and THz range. The Graphene patch is designed and tested with Si, SiO2 and Al2O3 substrates, which gives S11 at different THz frequencies and different bandwidths.
