Abstract

We consider the mechanism for generating radiation whose source surface currents are modulated in the variable z - vt in an array of noninteracting nanotubes. The velocity v must be equal to or larger than the light velocity in the medium. The process is qualitatively analogous to Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation. We show that intense SHF and THz radiation can be generated using such a method.
