Abstract
Holograms-diffractive elements-are designed and fabricated for shaping millimetre-wave radio fields. Methods for the synthesis of hologram elements are discussed and several beam shapes are tested: plane waves, radio-wave vortices and Bessel beams. Here we present an overview of the methods applied and results obtained with quasi-optical hologram techniques using both amplitude and phase holograms.
