Abstract :
In this paper, a novel overmoded surface wave oscillator (SWO) is proposed, and it could deliver an output power around 40 MW under the condition of 370 kV incident voltage at frequency of about 0.14 THz. The characteristics of surface wave and point operation are crucial to avoid the mode competition. Effects of various operating parameters on the device behavior were investigated, and finally a set of optimal values were achieved.
