چکیده
We report the production of high power (20watts average, ∼ 1 Megawatt peak) broadbandTHz light based on coherent emission fromrelativistic electrons. Such sources areideal for imaging, for high power damagestudies and for studies of non-linearphenomena in this spectral range. Wedescribe the source, presenting theoreticalcalculations and their experimentalverification. For clarity we compare thissource with one based on ultrafast lasertechniques.

Giant Terahertz Power Levels from Relativistic Electrons
INTRODUCTION We present measurements of both power and spectral content that confirm theoretical predictions of the generation of 20 watts (average) of broadband THz radiation pulses. The experiments were performed using the energy recovery linac (ERL) at the Jefferson Lab Free Electron Laser (JLab FEL)[1]. This facility offers a combination of very short electron bunches (~ 500 fs), relatively...
متن کاملNovel THz Radiation Sources
We discuss three novel terahertz (THz) radiation sources which all have the potential for producing high power, tunable frequency pulses of coherent THz radiation.
متن کاملVery high power THz radiation at Jefferson Lab.
We report the production of high power (20 W average, approximately 1 MW peak) broadband THz light based on coherent emission from relativistic electrons. We describe the source, presenting theoretical calculations and their experimental verification. For clarity we compare this source with that based on ultrafast laser techniques, and in fact the radiation has qualities closely analogous to th...
متن کاملPlasma physics and related challenges of millimeter-wave-to-terahertz and high power microwave generation
Homeland security and military defense technology considerations have stimulated intense interest in mobile, high power sources of millimeter-wave mmw to terahertz THz regime electromagnetic radiation, from 0.1 to 10 THz. While vacuum electronic sources are a natural choice for high power, the challenges have yet to be completely met for applications including noninvasive sensing of concealed w...
متن کامل1.1 Initial scientific uses of coherent synchrotron radiation in electron storage rings
The terahertz (THz) and sub-THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum bridges the infrared and the microwave. This boundary region is beyond the normal reach of optical and electronic measurement techniques normally associated with these better-known neighbors. Only over the past decade has this THz region become scientifically accessible with broadband sources of moderate intensity being prod...
