Abstract

The design and construction of metallic Periodic Surface Lattices (PSLs) to enable oversized cylindrical interaction volumes to be excited efficiently by annular electron beams is presented. Construction methods include metallic electrodeposition and "additive manufacturing", or "3D printing".
