Abstract

We present the development and characterisation of a high frequency (500 – 750 GHz) corrugated horn based on stacked rings. A previous horn design, based on a Winston profile, has been adapted for the purpose of this manufacturing process without noticeable RF degradation. A subset of experimental results obtained using a vector network analyser are presented and compared to the predicted performance. These first results demonstrate that this technology is suitable for most commercial applications and also astronomical receivers in need of horn arrays at high frequencies. © (2014) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
