Abstract :
Slot coal-plastic radiators, with a thin cuprous covering of the inside and outside faces, as well as of the slot end faces, are developed. Their fabrication turned out to be the basis for the creation of slot antenna constructions with a negative temperature stability factor. They are stronger than aluminum ones and lighter than them by 10-15%.
