Characterization of Self-Assembled Helical Slow-Wave Structures for Millimeter-Wave Traveling-Wave Tube Amplifiers

Self-assembled metal helices have recently emerged as viable slow-wave structures for millimeter-through-THz traveling-wave tube amplifiers. Here we present results on the fabrication and testing of devices for DC conductivity and S-parameters measurements in the W band.
