Abstract:
A microwave free-electron laser (FEL) is regarded as a possible candidate for high power microwave sources in the frequency region 10-100 GHz. In fact, the collaboration of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL) has demonstrated a successful single-stage experiment [1] of 35 GHz and 1 GW. Recently LLNL [2] also reported the preliminary success of FEL experiments where a small input signal of 140 GHz was amplified to 300 MW by a driving beam of about 1 kA injected from the induction linac (ETA II). These experiments triggered world-wide research activities [3,4] on the microwave FEL.
