Abstract

A new method of fabricating long dielectric-coated metallic waveguides has been proposed by using vacuum evaporation and assembly techniques. Phosphor bronze waveguides have been fabricated whose inner 2 or 4 walls are coated by a thin PbF2 layer with a proper thickness. Waveguides with small losses have been obtained even when the waveguides are bent.
