Description
Book SynopsisExplore the latestresearchavenues in the field ofhigh-powermicrowave sources and metamaterials A stand-alone follow-up to the highly successfulHigh Power Microwave Sources andTechnologies,the newHigh Power Microwave Sources and Technologies Using Metamaterials,demonstrateshow metamaterialshave impacted the field ofhigh-powermicrowave sources and the new directions revealed by the latest research.It's written by a distinguished team of researchers in the areawho explore a new paradigm within which to consider the interaction of microwaves with material media. Providing contributions from multiple institutions that discuss theoretical concepts as well as experimental results in slow wave structure design, this edited volumealso discusses how traditional periodic structures used since the 1940s and 1950s can have propertiesthat, until recently, were attributed to double negative metamaterial structures. The book also includes: A thorough introduction to high power microwave oscillators an
