Abstract In this paper, a piecewise sine waveguide (PWSWG) is proposed as the slow-wave structure (SWS) to develop high-power terahertz (THz) traveling wave tubes (TWTs). The PWSWG is an improvement over the rectangular waveguide wherein its two E-planes simultaneously oscillate up and down along the longitudinal direction. The oscillation curve in the H-plane is a piecewise sine curve formed by inserting line segments into the peaks and troughs of the sine curve. The simulation analysis and experimental verification show that the PWSWG offers the advantages of large interaction impedance and excellent electromagnetic transmission performance. Furthermore, the calculation results of beam–wave interaction show that the TWT based on PWSWG SWS can generate a radiated power of 253.1 W at the typical frequency of 220 GHz, corresponding to a gain of 37.04 dB and an interaction efficiency of 6.92%. Compared with the conventional SWG TWTs, the PWSWG TWT has higher interaction efficiency and shorter saturation tube length. In conclusion, the PWSWG proposed in this paper can be considered a suitable SWS for high-power THz radiation sources. |
