1. A radio frequency (RF) polarizer, comprising: a frame having a first side and a second side spaced apart from and opposite the first side; a first polarizer substrate attached to the first side and including a plurality of conductor patterns formed on a surface of the first polarizer substrate; and a second polarizer substrate attached to the second side, wherein the first polarizer substrate and the second polarizer substrate are attached to the first side and the second side, respectively, under tension such that a first bending force applied to the frame by the first polarizer substrate and a second bending force applied to the frame by the second polarizer substrate effectively cancel each other.
