Recent experimentation and theoretical modeling of IR and millimeter-wave devices for various applications are discussed in depth. Attention is given to powerful gyrotrons for thermonuclear research, new, high power coherent, millimeter radiation sources, and a kinetic theory of a harmonic gyrotron oscillator with a slotted resonant structure. Communication, radar and radiometer applications of integrated fin-line components are discussed, and investigations into propagation and mode coupling phenomena in corrugated and smooth-wall circular waveguides are reviewed. The known far-infrared (FIR) properties of inhomogeneous materials are described, including experimentation with normal-metal and insulator composites and with superconductivity. Finally, recent experimental and theoretical work on solid-state spectroscopy with FIR continuous-wave lasers is summarized in comparison with the performance bounds of Fourier spectroscopy.
