Abstract
A tilted paraboloidal reflective lens for focusing far infrared (FIR) rays has been devised. Tilted paraboloids with smooth surface and vertical walls were fabricated by two-step etching using microloading effect with a mask which had rectangular openings of various sizes. FIR light was focused by a 30-degree-tilted paraboloid lens. The size of a real image of an FIR source was 110 mum, which agrees with a lens formula.
