Abstract:
An example of considering the diffraction of scalar waves by an amplitude binary diffraction “lensacon” is used to show the feasibility of spatial scanning by a diffraction-limited wave beam in case of the point source displacement and changing the radiation wavelength in relation to the calculated one in the terahertz wavelength range.

Keywords:
diffractive element, wave beam, scalar wave, diffraction “lensacon”, diffraction-limited wave beam, terahertz, wavelength range.
