We analyze the mode matching issue. We calculate the coupling efficiency of the double-dielectric-slab waveguide to copper wire of 1mm diameter with respect to waveguide structure, beam structure and the THz frequency, theoretically. It is concluded that at 4.2THz the highest coupling efficiency achieved to be is 43.5%. We further show the coupling experimental system.
