  • Abstract
    The interaction between slow electromagnetic waves and drifting carriers in a semiconductor is analyzed including mechanisms important and peculiar to the semiconductor device. The growth rate coefficients, excitation amplitudes, and phase are found using a modification of Pierce´s one-dimensional model of the traveling-wave tube. A technique for calculating a growing mode criterion is presented.
