Popis: We present a terahertz transmission blaze-grating, which can be fabricated, easily, cost efficiently and in large numbers using compression molding of micro-powder. The diffraction properties of the grating are derived by simulation of electro-magnetic field scattering and are compared with angle-dependent measurements obtained in a terahertz time-domain setup. An excellent match between simulation and measurement is found, demonstrating the ability of the terahertz transmission blaze-grating for spatial dispersion of terahertz waves. Thus, this and similar terahertz transmission blaze-gratings can be used as dispersive elements for applications such as spectrometers or novel THz imaging systems.
