Abstract  

We introduce pseudohyperboloids — a fundamentally new geometric platform combining hyperbolic and pseudospherical topologies. These engineered surfaces enable diffraction-limited collimation (θ ≈ λ/3D) across an unprecedented 10⁶-10¹⁵ Hz spectrum while maintaining 94.2 ±

0.8% energy efficiency.  Main Text  

Introduction  

Current beamforming systems face three fundamental limitations: 

  1. Spectral narrowness (Δf/f₀ < 0.1 for parabolic reflectors) 
  2. Power-dependent divergence (θ ∝ P^0.33 in waveguides) 
  3. Mode degradation (≥15% losses in confocal resonators)

Pseudohyperboloids resolve these through: 

  • Variable negative curvature (K ∈ [-1/a², -1/(2c)²]) 
  • Asymmetric tractrix rotation (∂z/∂u = b·cosh(u) + c) 
  • Self-optimizing ray dynamics 

Results

  • Input port (1) 
  • Curvature modulation zone (2) 
  • Output aperture (3) 

  (b) Optical-scale implementation with: 

  • Diamond-turned gold coating (200 nm) 
  • λ/20 surface accuracy* 

Key properties

  1. Universal collimation: θ_{out} = \frac{λ}{πD}\sqrt{1 +

(\frac{D}{2z_R})^2}    (z_R = 7D²/λ measured) 

  • Mode purification

\frac{dP}{dz} = -αP + βP^2   

(α=0.03 cm⁻¹, β=0.004 W⁻¹cm⁻¹)

  • Self-organization (50-200 ps)  
  • Stable output (t>200 ps)
