Abstract :
The design and characterization results of a novel catadioptric dielectric lens are presented. Although being electrically small, the lens provides a focus in the close vicinity which makes it suitable to be used in microwave and terahertz systems. Several lenses of different dielectric materials and dimensions have been fabricated. A simple backscattering measurement method has been implemented in order to determine the focusing property of the lens.
