Some results of researches and development of devices with field emission (TWT, BWO, carcinotrode, klystrons and X-ray tubes, field emission displays, etc.) have been briefly presented in the article. Lines of development of its theory have been designated. Also the vacuum microwave electronics programs offered in Europe and USA have been considered. They are directed on using new technologies in coping with the terahertz frequency range, reflecting the trend of recent years.

This work presents results of experimental studies of coherence resonance phenomenon in UHF devices with long interaction (TWT and BWO). Basic properties of this phenomenon were investigated. Discovered suppression effect of resonant response on external noise by external harmonic signal. This suppression effect can be used to increase signal-to-noise ratio in system’s output. Specific features of coherence resonance phenomenon in long-interaction devices also noted.
