Abstract :
Imaging technologies using millimeter (MM) waves offer unique measurement means in many application areas. We discuss here MM-wave focal plane imaging technologies whose resolution is limited by diffraction and also MM-wave scanning near-field microscopy whose resolution is much smaller than operating wavelength. Results of our research on both of these imaging technologies are presented.
