Abstract :
Millimetre-wave radio fields are shaped using both amplitude- and phase-type computer-generated holograms (diffractive elements). Methods for hologram element synthesis are described. Holograms that produce plane waves, radio-wave vortices, and Bessel beams at 310 GHz are fabricated and tested.
