Abstract

Abstract Dichroic plate comprising a regular grid (10) and a respective element (12) within each interstice of the grid (10), the elements (12) being identical and of substantially non-re-entrant shape. A preferred shape for the elements (12) is a hollow square. Improvements relating to ease of design, proximity and stability of reflection and transmission bands and mitigation of cross polarization phenomena can be achieved.
