TPX / HDPE Terahertz Plano Convex Lens

 

There are two types of metamaterials with good terahertz transmittance mainly include high-molecular-weight materials and high-resistance silicon, Among them, the refractive index of high-resistance silicon (HRFZ-Si) is high. This material is more suitable for making lens. 

 

Among the high-resolution materials, polymethylpentene (TPX) has the best transmission performance in terahertz, but for optical-grade TPX materials due to High shrinkage ratio and low yield during injection molding result in high prices. Therefor terahertz window materials are generally using polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), TPX, high-resistance silicon, these materials are the main materials for terahertz lenses. 

 

There are many types of terahertz lenses. Commonly seen are mainly plano-convex non-spherical lenses, cone lens (used to produce Bessel beam), spiral phase plate, cylindrical lens, multi-hemispherical lens, Fresnel lens to reduce the thickness, etc. Terahertz lens was use in terahertz spectrometers and terahertx imagers for collimation and focus, or reverse use.
