Influences of the initial parameters on the performance of a coaxial-waveguide cyclotron autoresonance maser (CARM) amplifier

Nonlinear simulations demonstrate the possibility for a coaxial-waveguide cyclotron autoresonance maser (CARM) amplifier to operate at a frequency of 140?GHz emitting hundreds of watts with an ultrahigh gain of 68?dB. Careful design of the operating magnetic field is of importance to the power of the device, although the other initial parameters such as electron-beam radius and voltage also affect the power. Like a cylindrical-waveguide CARM, a coaxial-waveguide CARM amplifier is sensitive to the velocity spread of the electron beam.
