Experimental realization of millimeter-wave amplification by a sheet beam free electron laser
(American Institute of Physics, 1994-03-14)
We report an observation of millimeter-wave (94 GHz) amplification in a sheet beam, short period,
planar wiggler: free electron laser amplifier. The observed gain is about 5 dB for a 530 keV, 4 A
beam through a 54 cm ...
Experimental and numerical studies of sheet electron beam propagation through a planar wiggler magnet
(IEEE, 1993-12)
Detailed experimental studies on sheet relativistic
electron beam propagation through a long planar wiggler are
reported and compared with numerical simulations. The planar
wiggler has 56 periods with a period of 9.6 ...
Relativistic plasma microwave electronics: Studies of high-power plasma-filled backward-wave oscillators
(American Institute of Physics, 1992-07)
The area of relativistic plasma microwave electronics has only recently generated renewed
interest. New experimental data are presented demonstrating that the presence of a
low-density background plasma in a relativistic ...
Studies of relativistic backward wave oscillators: Comparison bewteen theory and experiment
(SPIE, 1992)
Microwave sources based on backward-wave oscillators driven by relativistic electron beams are capable
of producing high power coherent radiation in the cm and mm wavelength regime. Although there have
been a number of ...
Millimeter wave free electron laser amplifiers: Experiments and designs
(1991-08)
Free electron laser amplifiers are investigated as sources of high average-power (1 MW) millimeter to submillimeter wave radiation (200-600 GHz) for application to electron cyclotron resonance heating of magnetically ...
Relativistic backward wave oscillators: Theory and experiment
(IEEE, 1991)
Microwave sources based on backward-wave oscillators
with relativistic electron beams are capable of producing
high power coherent radiation in the cm and mm wavelength
regime. Although there have been a number of ...
Experimental development of a millimeter wave free electron laser
(SPIE, 1990-12)
A 1 MW (cw), millimeter wave FEL (X, « 0.5 mm) is currently under development with an application for heating
fusion plasmas. Two salient features of the FEL are the use of a short-period wiggler £w < 10 mm) electromagnet
and ...
Free electron laser with small period wiggler and sheet electron beam: A Study of the feasibility of operation at 300 GHz with 1 MW CW output power
(1989)
The use of a small period wiggler (Cw < 1 cm) together with a sheet electron beam
has been proposed as a low cost source of power for electron cyclotron resonance heating
(ECRH) in magnetic fusion plasmas. Other potential ...
Low-voltage, megawatt free-electron lasers at a frequency near 300 GHz
(SPIE, 1988-01)
Design procedures and beam transport feasibility experiments Il.re discussed for a novel,
millimeter-wave free electron laser (FEL) concept employing short period magnetic
undulators and a sheet electron beam. The ...
