摘要
We have developed small-sized terahertz free-electron lasers by using low-cost and compact microtrons combining with magnetrons as high-power RF sources. We could stabilize the bunch repetition rate by optimizing a modulator for the magnetron and by coupling the magnetron with an accelerating cavity in the microtron. By developing high-performance undulators and low-loss waveguide-mode resonators having small cross-sectional areas, we could strengthen the interaction between the electron beam and the THz wave inside the FEL resonators to achieve lasing even with low-current electron beams from the microtron. We used a parallel-plate waveguide in a planar electromagnet undulator for our first THz FEL. We try to reduce the size of the FEL resonator by combining a dielectric-coated circular waveguide and a variable-period helical undulator to realize a table-top THz FEL for applying it to the security inspection on airports.
