The potential of converting heat energy into electrical energy using a previously reported waveguide-ballistic device is presented. The interactions between incident electromagnetic waves and free electrons in a metal waveguide are analyzed with respect to their transport through a high-frequency ballistic rectifier using finite element method simulation. It was determined that the resulting conversion efficiency to a dc potential is approximately 6%, yielding a power density on the order of 30W∕m2.

This paper considers the non-linear interaction between three resonant, modified ordinary electromagnetic waves, which propagate perpendicular to a constant magnetic field in a spatially homogeneous electron plasma. The coupling coefficients are calculated and discussed. Finally, a general formula, describing the interaction between three waves propagating at arbitrary angles to the static field, is derived.
