Microwave sources transform the kinetic energy of an electron beam into microwaves
through the interaction of electrons with a periodic slow wave structure (SWS). A …

Dielectric barrier discharge is a form of atmospheric plasma that has found interest for
applications in a growing variety of industries. Its benefits include: no vacuum facility …

This thesis presents the theoretical and experimental investigation of the interaction of
metamaterial structures with electron beams for two applications: wakefield acceleration and …

The goal of this dissertation is to design novel metamaterials for High Power Microwave
devices. Metamaterials (MTM) are artificial periodic structures, which support reversed …

The present invention relates to (1) a MASER (microwave or molecular amplification by
stimulated emission of radiation) that can operate effectively in environments as warm as …

We use the particle-in-cell simulation code MAGIC to model the MIT metamaterial loaded
waveguide high power microwave source design and demonstrate coherent microwave …
