The strip grating as a circular polarizer

Abstract: A conducting strip grating can convert a linearly polarized plane wave into one that is circularly polarized. The conversion of a normally incident wave is most efficient when the grating period is 0.874 times the wavelength, the width of the strips is half the grating period and the angle between the direction of polarization and the strips is 45°. This result is confirmed by a microwave experiment at 35 GHz.

“…In addition, periodic structures in the millimetre wave range with high precision requirements must be planar structures, for fabrication reasons [7]. Also, in other applications the strip grating is often used as a circular polarizer [43]. The list of applications can be continued.…”
