Ohmic wall losses are proposed as a means for improving the mode selection in a cylindrical gyrotron cavity with longitudinal wedge-shaped corrugations. Such losses depend on mode frequency and geometrical parameters of the corrugations. For cavity of the 0.4-THz second-harmonic gyrotron we find the corrugation depth, which corresponds to maximum ohmic losses of the competing modes excited at the first (fundamental) cyclotron resonance, as well as to reasonably low losses of the operating mode. For this depth, we determine the number of corrugations and their width, which ensure the maximum enhancement of the ohmic wall losses of the fundamental modes with respect to those of the operating second-harmonic mode, together with minimum conversion of the operating second-harmonic mode to higher Bloch harmonics. Parameters of the corrugations in hand are practicable.

Mode-converting longitudinal corrugations are used as a means of improving the selectivity properties of cavities for second-harmonic gyrotrons. As an example, 100-kW 0.3-THz second-harmonic gyrotron is considered. For the operating second-harmonic mode and most dangerous first-harmonic competing modes, the eigenvalues, ohmic losses and beam-wave coupling coefficients are investigated with respect to dimensions of a corrugated cavity. The most optimal parameters are found for a gyrotron cavity with mode-converting corrugations, which ensure the widest range of a single mode operation for the 0.3-THz second-harmonic gyrotron. It is shown that, in this range, the gyrotron output power can be increased up to 180 kW. It is found that output mode purity of the 0.3-THz second-harmonic gyrotron falls off due to mode-converting corrugations, which induce undesirable coupling of the operating mode with neighboring Bloch harmonics in the output section of the gyrotron cavity.

Background: Dielectric nanoantennas have recently emerged as an alternative solution to plasmonics for nonlinear light manipulation at the nanoscale, thanks to the magnetic and electric resonances, the strong nonlinearities, and the low ohmic losses characterizing high refractive-index materials in the visible/near-infrared (NIR) region of the spectrum. In this frame, AlGaAs nanoantennas demonstrated to be extremely efficient sources of second harmonic radiation. In particular, the nonlinear polarization of an optical system pumped at the anapole mode can be potentially boosted, due to both the strong dip in the scattering spectrum and the near-field enhancement, which are characteristic of this mode. Plasmonic nanostructures, on the other hand, remain the most promising solution to achieve strong local field confinement, especially in the NIR, where metals such as gold display relatively low losses. Results: We present a nonlinear hybrid antenna based on an AlGaAs nanopillar surrounded by a gold ring, which merges in a single platform the strong field confinement typically produced by plasmonic antennas with the high nonlinearity and low loss characteristics of dielectric nanoantennas. This platform allows enhancing the coupling of light to the nanopillar at coincidence with the anapole mode, hence boosting both second- and third-harmonic generation conversion efficiencies. More than one order of magnitude enhancement factors are measured for both processes with respect to the isolated structure. Conclusion: The present results reveal the possibility to achieve tuneable metamixers and higher resolution in nonlinear sensing and spectroscopy, by means of improved both pump coupling and emission efficiency due to the excitation of the anapole mode enhanced by the plasmonic nanoantenna.

Application Potential

Cumulative second harmonic of ultrasonic guided waves is considered to have great application potential in evaluating internal stress of structures. One difficulty with the application is the diversity and complexity of modal response to the stress change in waveguide. At present, there is a lack of relevant theoretical studies and experimental results to guide the applications. In this article, a method is proposed to characterize the amplitude change of cumulative second harmonic mode in a plate under stress through calculating the amplitude coefficient, which can be acquired based on mode shape analysis. The steel plate is taken as an example to demonstrate the analysis method. Experimental studies are presented with results consistent with the theoretical predictions. The results of this study indicate that the amplitudes of different cumulative second harmonic modes may increase or decrease monotonically with the change of stress. Therefore, when the phenomenon of modes mixing occurs in the waveguide, it is necessary to analyze and predict the amplitude of selected cumulative second harmonic mode with the change of stress in advance; otherwise, wrong results may be obtained. The method and conclusions proposed in this paper can also be applicable to waveguide of arbitrary cross-section and have universality.
