Abstract
A slow-wave structure utilizing planar conductors with rectangular geometry is studied. The dispersion relation and Pierce impedance of symmetric, antisymmetric, and asymmetric modes are analyzed using field theories in the planar sheath approximation, and using numerical analysis via HFSS simulation. The goal is to develop a planar structure driven by a sheet electron beam that is immune to backward wave excitation.
