Resonant excitation of coherent Cerenkov radiation in dielectric lined waveguides

Abstract: We report the observation of coherent Cerenkov radiation in the terahertz regime emitted by a relativistic electron pulse train passing through a dielectric lined cylindrical waveguide. We describe the beam manipulations and measurements involved in repetitive pulse train creation including comb collimation and nonlinear optics corrections. With this technique, modes beyond the fundamental are selectively excited by use of the appropriate frequency train. The spectral characterization of the structure shows pr… Show more

“…Therefore a bunch train in principle can select only one mode out of a multimode structure. A similar experiment has been done recently [6], where a bunch train was used to selectively excite either the fundamental mode or a dipole mode. This experiment was performed at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) of Brookhaven National Laboratory [7].…”

“…Grating structures can be used to excite a THz Smith-Purcell radiation [18]. Finally, one can use coherent Cherenkov radiation (CCR) [19,20]. The length of the THz extraction structure controls the resulting bandwidth (less than 1% is attainable).…”
