Development of the Two-Stage Planar Fem for the Terahertz Band on the Basis of the ELMI Accelerator
Project of the two-stage FEM-generator based on the ELMI accelerator with two parallel sheet electron beams formed in a single cathode unit is under development currently. In this scheme the first beam is used in the low-frequency section of the FEM for generating of high-power 75 GHz radiation. This radiation than goes through the coupling waveguides to the second channel and operates as a pumping wave which scatter on the second beam into the terahertz band. Our paper is devoted to modeling of various stimulated scattering regimes in this high-frequency section. Regime of the selfamplified spontaneous emission (SASE) is considered as well as a generator with resonator for the scattered radiation formed with advanced Bragg structures, based on coupling of traveling and quasi-critical waves
