Abstract With the aid of a three-dimensional particle-in-cell code simulation, the enhancement of Smith-Purcell radiation with a surface-plasmon mode excited by a single electron bunch and by a premodulated electron beam is considered in the paper. In the simulation, the model is a grating covered by Ag film. The results demonstrate that when the surface-plasmon mode is excited by a single electron bunch, the maximum radiation occurs at an observation angle depending on the surface-plasmon frequency, and the radiation power can be enhanced more than ten times. And for pre-bunched electron beam excitation, when one of the harmonics of the bunching frequency is resonant with that of the surface-plasmon mode, the radiation power is twenty times more than that from a perfectly conducting grating excited by the same premodulated electron beam.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
