ONE-DIMENSIONAL ELECTROMAGNETIC BAND GAP STRUCTURE FORMED BY PLASMA COLUMNS
Abstract
The results of simulation and experimental study of the one-dimensional electromagnetic band gap structure formed solely by plasma columns in the waveguide of X frequency band (3 cm wavelength range) are presented. The simulations show that the plasma structure is formed at a value of the electron density more than 1014 cm–3 and of the plasma column diameter of 3–4 mm. Computations are in good agreement with experimental data. The possibility of variation of the microwave pulse duration from 10 microseconds to tens of nanoseconds is demonstrated. The plasma electromagnetic band gap structure was tested at high microwave power (~50 kW).
