Abstract

Transformation of the electromagnetic-wave polarization by a 2D grating of metal Ω elements is studied theoretically and experimentally. The electric dipole moment and magnetic moment excited by a linearly polarized incident wave in a single Ω element are determined. The parameters of an Ω element that are optimal for radiation of a circularly polarized wave are calculated. A 2D grating consisting of Ω elements with optimal parameters is fabricated, and the obtained theoretical results are verified experimentally.
