We present a design of a high performance horn operating at 700 GHz. The feed, which comprises three smooth-walled conical sections, is easy to machine and yet has comparable performance to a corrugated horn. The measured radiation patterns show high main beam circularity, low sidelobe level and good agreement with theoretical predictions. The cross-polar level is below −20 dB across a frequency bandwidth of 140 GHz. The new design allows the fabrication of high performance, large format feed arrays cheaply and rapidly.
