There are materials that are difficult to deposit using thermal methods due to their high operating temperatures, as well as materials that exhibit low efficiency in magnetron sputtering. In such cases, an arc discharge can be used to evaporate the material. Typically, a direct current arc discharge is employed and maintained for a relatively long duration. Evaporation from the overheated arc...

Cherenkov Diffraction Radiation (ChDR), generated when a relativistic charged particle travels parallel to and close to a dielectric boundary, has attracted considerable research interest. As a type of polarization radiation, ChDR originates from the time-dependent polarization induced in the medium. Its characteristics are strongly influenced by beam parameters such as beam size, position,...

Cherenkov diffraction radiation (ChDR) is generated when short bunches of charged particles with relativistic energies pass near dielectric targets, due to the interaction of the particles' Coulomb field with these targets. ChDR is promising for use as a means of non-disturbing diagnostics of high-energy particle beams [1-2], as well as for generating radiation in the terahertz and...

Narrowband Cherenkov radiation in the millimeter-wave and sub-terahertz frequency ranges has attracted considerable attention as a compact and tunable source of coherent electromagnetic radiation. In particular, radiation in the 30–50 GHz range can be generated when relativistic electron beams propagate through dielectric structures under conditions satisfying the Cherenkov criterion.

Nonlinear Compton scattering in collisions of relativistic electron beams with intense laser pulses offers a promising route toward compact tunable X-ray and gamma-ray sources. As the laser intensity increases, the radiation spectrum is expected to depart from the linear regime through several characteristic effects, including redshift and broadening of the main spectral line, an increase in...
