| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Thanks to the radio observations using ALMA etc., the distributions of the various minor molecules were found over the entire molecular cloud. To reveal its details, observing lots of line spectra in a wide area , wide frequency band of submm, with high efficiency is necessary. For such observation, a combination of a waveguide frequency band multiple splitter called FSFB and an orthogonal polarization splitter of OMT is considered to be very effective; however, the conventional waveguide devices are narrowband. In addition, applying these in submm band is difficult due to problems of machining error.
In this research, we worked to broaden the bandwidth of OMT & FSFB, and developed new techniques to improve fabrication accuracy. As a result, we succeeded in developing a new type OMT that has the fractional bandwidth of over 60%, where capable of ALMA Band 2+3, 7+8. In addition, new techniques of low fabrication error were obtained for fabrication the OMT, FSFB etc. in submm band.
