  • Abstract
    The idea of using the Smith-Purcell effect to build a compact (table-top) long wavelength (0.1 -1 mm) free-electron laser is quite old. However, it is only recently that a complete theory for the operation of such devices has been proposed. The current state of the theoretical and experimental efforts to understand these devices will be summarized.
