Abstract
A terahertz Smith-Purcell backward-wave oscillator (BWO) with an inverse wet-etched grating based on silicon has been studied to enhance radiation intensity. Particle-in-cell simulation shows that the radiated power is increased up to 2.3 times higher at the radiated frequency of 0.66 THz for an electron-beam energy of 30 keV.
