The coupling output of multichannel high power microwaves is a promising technique for the development of high power microwave technologies, as it can enhance the output capacities of presently studied devices. According to the investigations on the spatial filtering method and waveguide filtering method, the hybrid filtering method is proposed for the coupling output of multichannel high power microwaves. As an example, a specific structure is designed for the coupling output of S/X/X band three-channel high power microwaves and investigated with the hybrid filtering method. In the experiments, a pulse of 4 GW X band beat waves and a pulse of 1.8 GW S band microwave are obtained.
Lasers distinguish themselves for the high coherence and high brightness of their radiation, features which have been exploited both in fundamental research and a broad range of technologies. However, emerging applications in the field of imaging, which can benefit from brightness, directionality and efficiency, are impaired by the speckle noise superimposed onto the picture by the interference of coherent scattered fields. We contribute a novel approach to the longstanding efforts in speckle noise reduction by exploiting a new emission regime typical of nanolasers, where low-coherence laser pulses are spontaneously emitted below the laser threshold. Exploring the dynamic properties of this kind of emission in the presence of optical reinjection we show, through the numerical analysis of a fully stochastic approach, that it is possible to tailor some of the properties of the emitted radiation, in addition to exploiting this naturally existing regime. This investigation, therefore, proposes semiconductor nanolasers as potential attractive, miniaturized and versatile future sources of low-coherence radiation for imaging.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
