Abstract: A reduction in the transmission of terahertz radiation through a periodically modulated slab of layered superconductor owing to diffraction of the incident wave and resonance excitation of eigenmodes is predicted and studied theoretically. The slab thickness is assumed to be much less than the skin depth and when there is no modulation the slab transmission is close to unity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
