Cylindrical gaussian-hermite modes in rectangular waveguides resonators. Technical report, 14 January 1981-13 January 1982

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5770466
Approximate solutions to the wave equation inside a rectangular metallic waveguide was obtained in terms of cylindrical Gaussian-Hermite functions. E/sub mn/ modes propagate with negligible straight guide losses in the far-infrared region. A new type of low-loss optical resonator suitable for free electron lasers (FEL) operation at long wavelengths is presented.
