ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for generating electromagnetic waves are provided. In one embodiment, a system for generating electromagnetic waves is provided. The system comprises a dielectric column comprising a spherical portion and at least one cylindrical portion, wherein the spherical portion receives a first wave from a first source and a second wave from a second source and generates a resulting electromagnetic wave along the interior of the cylindrical portion having a difference frequency caused by whispering gallery modes of the spherical portion, and the at least one cylindrical portion having at least one output for outputting the resulting electromagnetic wave.
