Abstract:

The results of theoretical and numerical studies of coherent stimulated terahertz radiation from intense, subnanosecond electron beam are presented. The mechanism of terahertz pulse generation is associated with self-bunching of the beam and slippage of the wave over the whole electron flow. This so called Cherenkov super-radiance (SR) is used to propose a compact terahertz generator with high peak power. A large cross-section (overmoded), slow wave structure is designed to support the high power handling capability, and the mode competition is avoided by operating the device in the surface wave status. With 2.5 D particle-in-cell simulation, the "hot" characteristics of the proposed super-radiant terahertz generator are investigated, and the numerical results show that the SR peak power could be further increased by optimizing the amplitude profile of electron pulse. Under the condition of 0.5 ns pulsewidth, 500 kV voltage, and 1.5 kA current, the 110 ps, 680 MW, and 0.14 THz SR pulse is achieved with a power efficiency of 90.67% in TM01 mode.
