The higher harmonics of the free electron laser(FEL)with a two-wavenumber plane wiggler magnetic field,which may induce a lot of higher harmonics,are investigated.Using a two-wavenumber wiggler comprised of two separate periodicities,k_(ω)and k_(ω)+Δk,numerical simulations show that the higher harmonic may be amplified and the first harmonic may be suppressed in this kind of FEL with an optimized parameterΔk.The coupling coefficient and gain coefficient in low-gain regime of the harmonic are also obtained.
