In order to facilitate coherent bremsstrahlung radiation, the movement of the diamond radiator due to natural oscillation must be minimized. One possible way to mount the diamond involves supporting it from a single corner and leaving the other end free. The purpose of this work is to theoretically model the free vibrations of such a system to determine if it is a realistic solution to the problem of mounting the diamond. | In order to facilitate coherent bremsstrahlung radiation, the movement of the diamond radiator due to natural oscillation must be minimized.
