As the numerical simulations of the beam-wave interaction shows, simultaneous increase of the characteristic admittance and the quality factor makes the metamaterial loaded SHM superior to its conventional counterpart. The preliminary measurement results of the fabricated metamaterial loaded SHM are also presented in this paper.enElectron beammagnetronmetamaterialsmillimeter wave devicesTechnikConference Paper10.1109/EuMC.2015.7345798Other
