A new slow wave structure (SWS), named E-plane loaded sine waveguide (EPLSW) SWS is proposed for the development of G-band traveling wave tubes (TWTs). The structure, derived from the sine waveguide (SW) SWS, features staggered rectangular gratings on the two E-planes, intersecting with the sine-shaped gratings. The natural electron beam tunnel lies between these gratings. The EPLSW-SWS offers improved characteristics compared to the conventional SW-SWS. High-frequency simulation studies reveal that the passband of the EPLSW-SWS extends by more than 33 GHz over the SW-SWS under identical dispersion conditions. Additionally, the interaction impedance of EPLSW-SWS surpasses that of the SW-SWS in the frequency range of 195–255 GHz. Further analysis through particle-in-cell (PIC) results presents that when operating at 19.5 kV and 145 mA for the sheet beam current, it attains a maximum saturated power of 132.7W and a 3 dB bandwidth exceeding 50 GHz.
