1. In a space filter of a variety incorporating a surface disposed array of recurrent filter components mutually arranged in a periodic pattern, the improvement comprising:

  • a surface incorporating a cluster of three discrete mutually spaced filter components, each said component comprising a pair of thin elements each extending from a terminal portion thereof to define linear portions, said linear portions being symmetrically disposed about, and at an angle of about 60°

    , with respect to an axis bisecting them;

    means defining a reactive load connected with each said terminal portion and configured as a loop symmetrically disposed about said axis and extending outwardly between said linear portions; and

    the said axis of any given one of said three filter components being disposed with respect to an adjacent other one of said axes at an angle of about 60°

    whereby said filter components within said cluster are mutually symmetrically disposed; and

    the adjacent linear portions of said three filter components being mutually spaced and defining an open ended surface region whereby all portions of said surface are present in the array and in a continuous fashion.
