Cut-off wavelength for TE01 mode for a ractangular wave guide with cross-section a × b (where 'a' is the broader side) is given by :

  • A.2b
  • B.a
  • C.2a
  • D.b

Answer: A

The cut-off wavelength for TE01 is 2b.

For a rectangular waveguide the cut-off wavelength of a TEmn mode is

\[ \lambda_{c} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{(m/a)^{2} + (n/b)^{2}}} \]

For m = 0 and n = 1 this reduces to \(\lambda_{c} = 2b\), with the field varying across the narrower dimension b.

2a is the cut-off wavelength of the dominant TE10 mode, which varies across the broader side. a and b alone are the cut-off wavelengths of the TE20 and TE02 modes.
