We experimentally demonstrate for the first time the degenerate band edge (DBE) condition, namely the degeneracy of four Bloch modes, in loaded circular metallic waveguides. The four modes forming the DBE represent a degeneracy of fourth order occurring in a periodic structure where four Bloch modes, two propagating and two evanescent, coalesce. It leads to a very flat wavenumber-frequency dispersion relation, and the finite length structures quality factor scales as $N^5$ where $N$ is the number of unit cells. The proposed waveguide in which DBE is observed here is designed by periodically loading a circular waveguide with misaligned elliptical metallic rings, supported by a low-index dielectric. We validate the existence of the DBE in such structure using measurements and we report good agreement between full-wave simulation and the measured response of the waveguide near the DBE frequency; taking into account metallic losses. We correlate our finding to theoretical and simulation results utilizing various techniques including dispersion synthesis, as well as observing how quality factor and group delay scale as the structure length increases. Moreover, the reported geometry is only an example of metallic waveguide with DBE: DBE and its characteristics can also be designed in many other kinds of waveguides and various applications can be contemplated as high microwave generation in amplifiers and oscillators based on an electron beam interaction or solid state devices, pulse compressors and microwave sensors.

The paper includes two contributions. First, it proves that the series and shunt radiation components, corresponding to longitudinal and transversal electric fields, respectively, are always in phase quadrature in axially asymmetric periodic leaky-wa
ve antennas (LWAs), so that these antennas are inherently elliptically polarized. This fact is theoretically proven and experimentally illustrated by two case-study examples, a composite right/left-handed (CRLH) LWA and a series-fed patch (SFP) LWA. Second, it shows (for the case of the SFP LWA) that the axial ratio is controlled and minimized by the degree of axial asymmetry.
An elegant and convenient rigorous approach for solving circular open-ended dielectric-loaded waveguide diffraction problems is presented. It uses the solution of corresponding Wiener-Hopf-Fock equation and leads to an infinite linear system for refl
ection coefficients (S-parameters) of the waveguide, the latter can be efficiently solved numerically using the reducing technique. As a specific example directly applicable to beam-driven radiation sources based on dielectric-lined capillaries, diffraction of a slow TM symmetrical mode at the open end of a circular waveguide with uniform dielectric filling is considered. A series of such modes forms the wakefield (Cherenkov radiation field) generated by a charged particle bunch during its passage along the waveguide axis. Calculated S-parameters were compared with those obtained from COMSOL simulation and an excellent agreement is shown. This method is expected to be very convenient for analytical investigation of various electromagnetic interactions of Terahertz (THz) waves (both free and guided) and charged particle bunches with slow-wave structures prospective in context of modern beam-driven THz emitters, THz accererators and THz-based bunch manipulation and bunch diagnostic systems.
Exceptional points (EPs) associated with a square-root singularity have been found in many non-Hermitian systems. In most of the studies, the EPs found are isotropic meaning that the same singular behavior is obtained independent of the direction fro
m which they are approached in the parameter space. In this work, we demonstrate both theoretically and experimentally the existence of an anisotropic EP in an acoustic system that shows different singular behaviors when the anisotropic EP is approached from different directions in the parameter space. Such an anisotropic EP arises from the coalescence of two square-root EPs having the same chirality.
It is shown that in the Love-Kirchhoff plate theory, an edge wave can travel in a circular thin disk made of an isotropic elastic material. This disk edge wave turns out to be faster than the classic flexural acoustic wave in a straight-edged, semi-i
nfinite, thin plate, a wave which it mimics when the curvature radius becomes very large compared to the wavelength.
We introduce a reverse engineering approach to drive a RC circuit. This technique is implemented experimentally 1) to reach a stationary regime associated to a sinusoidal driving in very short amount of time, 2) to ensure a fast discharge of the capa
citor, and 3) to guarantee a fast change of stationary regime associated to different driving frequencies. This work can be used as a simple experimental project dedicated to the computer control of a voltage source. Besides the specific example addressed here, the proposed method provides an original use of simple linear differential equation to control the dynamical quantities of a physical system, and has therefore a certain pedagogical value.
