Abstract This paper is concerned with development of compact continuously tunable over all the submillimeterwave band (180 – 1500GHz) general purpose radiation source. The source consists of Backward Wave Oscillator (BWO) of the range 180 – 260 GHz or 250 – 375 GHz fixed in a small permanent magnet, followed by specially developed broadband frequency multiplier producing second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth harmonics of BWO fundamental frequency. The conversion losses for all the harmonics are measured. The estimations of output power of the source depending on frequency band are given. The examples of applications are presented in phase lock-in scanning BWO regime.
