Abstract :
The problems connected with creation of a new class of low-voltage multibeam electrovacuum devices of a millimetric range of low power are discussed. In the amplifier the matrix field emission cathode and input and output planar multiline waveguide with tape-like conductors in which transverse-extended interaction is realized. With reference to the given waveguide with the help of the strict electrodynamic theory the geometrical and constructive conditions providing the maximal coupling resistance, reaching 150-200 Ohm are investigated
