Experimental results will be presented of a frequency tunable gyrotron backward wave oscillator (gyro-BWO). A helically corrugated interaction region (HCIR) was used to allow efficient interaction over a wide frequency band at the second harmonic of the electron cyclotron frequency without parasitic output [1-5]. The gyro-BWO generated a maximum output power of 12 kW when driven by a 40 kV, 1.5 A,...
Theoretical calculation, numerical simulation and experimental development of a W-band gyro-TWA with a helically corrugated waveguide and a cusp electron gun are presented. The cusp gun generated a 40 keV, 1.5 A axis-encircling electron beam. The maximum output of the gyro-TWA was predicted to be 5 kW with a 3 dB frequency bandwidth of 90–100 GHz and a saturated gain of 37 dB. The latest experimental...
A 390 GHz harmonic gyrotron based on a cusp electron gun was designed to operate on a TE71 mode and the 7th cyclotron harmonic of a large orbit electron beam. This beam is produced by a cusp electron gun with a voltage of 40 keV, a current of 1.5 A and an adjustable velocity ratio from 1 to 3. Smooth cylindrical waveguide was studied and built as the interaction cavity. The relationship between the...
The experimental demonstration of a gyrotron backward wave oscillator (gyro-BWO) using a cusp electron gun and helically corrugated waveguide will be presented. Operating in the W-band frequency range the gyro-BWO is predicted to output ~10 kW with a frequency tuning range of 85-104 GHz at 18% electronic efficiency before the energy recovery. The annular axis-encircling electron beam has been experimentally...
