We propose, simulate and investigate how the thickness of plasmonic electrode h and the ratio between h and the period of subwavelength periodical metallic (plasmonic) grating h/p on the THz emission efficiency in a photoconductive emitter. By numerical optimization we determine the grating geometry with respect to maximal optical transmission. We showcase that simultaneous increase in h and h/p allows efficient excitation of plasmon modes in the grating, that follows with an THz power enhancement up to 10000 compared to conventional emitter without grating. The overall THz power exceeds 5 μW in the 0.1-4 THz bandwidth, with the conversion efficiency of ~0.2%. The developed grating design can be also used for photoconductive THz detectors in modern THz spectroscopic and imaging setups. Keywords: terahertz science and technology, terahertz pulsed spectroscopy, terahertz element base, photoconductive antenna, plasmonic grating, optical light confinement, semiconductors.
