This article presents the investigation of millimetre wave extended interaction oscillation (EIO) using both pencil and sheet-shaped pseudospark (PS)-sourced electron beams. A W-band (75–110 GHz) pencil beam Extended Interaction Oscillator (EIO) was designed and constructed to operate for the first experiment with the output power of 38 W achieved from a four-gap PS discharge operating at 30.5 kV...
This article presents the investigation of a millimetre-wave extended interaction oscillation using both pencil and sheet-shaped pseudospark (PS)-sourced electron beams. Two W-band (75–110 GHz) pencil and sheet beam extended interaction oscillators (EIO) were designed and constructed respectively. The PS-sourced pencil beam EIO structure was firstly driven by a four-gap PS discharge operating at 30...

High quality intense electron beams play an important role in high power millimeter-wave and terahertz radiation generation. To this end, the pseudospark-sourced electron beam has been investigated with their applications in different beam-wave interaction structures. Different structures have been designed and modelled using the particle-in-cell codes MAGIC and CST Particle Studio. The experimental...
Pseudospark (PS) electron beams of outstanding performance have been studied recently with their application to a demanding field of millimeter-wave and terahertz radiation generation. To this end, the PS discharge process itself has been studied and millimeter wave sources which utilize a PS sourced electron beam in different beam-wave interaction structures have been designed and modelled using...
The pseudospark discharge is a form of low-pressure gas discharge capable of generating extremely high currents with short rise times by means of a unique hollow cathode structure [1-6]. A high-quality electron beam is generated during the later phases of the discharge process, which possesses high current density and brightness, as well as the ability to self-focus via ion channel focusing. This...
Millimeter-wave radiation has been successfully generated by a ∼100GHz BWO driven by a high brightness electron beam derived from a 14-gap pseudospark discharge. Pseudospark electron beams have been studied recently with their application to millimeter-wave and terahertz radiation generation. A BWO utilizing the interaction between an axial electron beam and a slow-wave structure was designed and...
Pseudospark electron beams of micro-sizes have been measured recently and their application to millimeter-wave and terahertz radiation generation is being investigated. A three cavity 94 GHz klystron using a micro-sized beam has been designed and simulated and is currently being constructed.
A multicavity microklystron operating in the terahertz region has been designed and simulated. This microklystron will be driven by an electron beam sourced by a down-scaled pseudospark discharge.
Based on previous experimental investigations on pseudospark (PS) discharges, a small-scaled PS electron beam source was conceived to drive a 200 GHz microklystron. Recent PS e-beam experiments producing a beam of 1 mm in diameter and klystron interaction simulations will be presented. The microklystron will be fabricated using micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) construction techniques.
