- This paper reports an entirely new type of orthomode transducer for microwave polarisation splitting at 70-100 GHz. In addition to the new design, the novelty lies in the construction using metal coated micromachined polymer layers for a miniature waveguide enabling the ultra-high frequency of operation. The work was in collaboration the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid and led to a successful EPSRC (EP/M016269/1) grant on micromachined circuits for terahertz communications, where a full communications system at 300 GHz was proposed.
