Abstract :
Frequency Selective Surfaces, FSS´s, have been used for more than 30 years to make filters in the far infrared and submillimetre region, which can have low-pass, high-pass and band selection properties. Here we briefly illustrate the current state of the art with respect to these quasi-optical components in the form of spectral data for fully realized and operational devices.
