An electron optic system (EOS) consisting of a sheet electron beam gun (SEB) and a pole offset periodic cusped magnet (PO-PCM) is reported for 340-GHz frequency. A sheet electron beam with a voltage of 29 kV, beam compression ratio of 16, and a beam waist of size 0.17 mm × 0.044 mm was designed and optimized using computer simulation technology (CST). The EOS was capable of transmitting the beam with a current of 6.9 mA through a beam tunnel of size 0.516 mm × 0.091 mm, having a length of 60 mm with the help of a pole offset periodic cusped magnet. The axial magnetic field generated by the PCM was 0.32 T. The EOS was efficient enough to transmit the beam stably through the beam tunnel with a transmission rate of 100%.
