Abstract

The broadband microwave transmission properties of quasi-optical components are characterized with optoelectronically generated, picosecond transient radiation. The polarization sensitivity of a lithographically fabricated wire grating, from 15-140 GHz, is presented. The complex transmission functions of two different uniform arrays of cross dipoles are measured and compared with theoretical predictions
