Mode and gain analysis for symmetric and staggered grating-waveguide free-electron laser

A grating-waveguide free-electron laser is driven by an axial electron beam that propagates between two planar gratings. This investigation addresses the mode analysis, gain calculation, and frequency tuning for such a device with arbitrary longitudinal and transverse displacements between the two g...
