Abstract

To reduce transmission loss and improve spatial resolution, a diffractive-refractive lens with an aperture diameter of 120 mm has been designed, fabricated, and demonstrated for the submillimeter focal plane imaging system. We analyze the lens’ characteristics, such as focal length, depth of focus, beams spot size, spatial resolution, and field of view, theoretically and experimentally. It is the first time this is used as a focusing lens in the submillimeter wave imaging system. The results show that the lens’ characteristics are identical with theoretical analysis.
