Sub-wavelength metamaterial structures are of great fundamental and practical interest because of their ability to manipulate the propagation of electromagnetic waves. We review here our recent work on the design, simulation, implementation and equivalent circuit modeling of metamaterial devices operating at Terahertz frequencies. THz metamaterials exhibiting plasmon-induced transparency are realized through the hybridization of double split ring resonators on either silicon or flexible polymer substrates and exhibiting slow light properties. THz metamaterials perfect absorbers and stereometamaterials are realized with multifunctional specifications such as broadband absorbing, switching, and incident light polarization selectivity.
