Abstract: Methods of and apparatus for manipulating beamed electromagnetic phenomenon comprises a generator (20) of aligned conical or pyramidal elements (21a-21f) each having conical or pyramidal inner and outer surfaces (24a-24f and 23a-23f). When the beamed electromagnetic phenomenon includes a zero-order component the elements (21a-21f) minimize or eliminate the zero-order component allowing for devices such as on-axis holographic displays, demodulators and optical processors for computers.
