High-power oscillator of continuous electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of 300 GHz

We consider a general concept of construction, the possible versions, and specific features of a gyrotron, whose output power in CW oscillation regime can reach a few kilowatts at a frequency of 300 GHz. The gyrotron is designed for work in a high-frequency facility in combination with a "dry&q...

Description
Summary:We consider a general concept of construction, the possible versions, and specific features of a gyrotron, whose output power in CW oscillation regime can reach a few kilowatts at a frequency of 300 GHz. The gyrotron is designed for work in a high-frequency facility in combination with a "dry" cryomagnet, which ensures a magnetic field of up to 12 T, required for the gyrotron operation. The basic results of numerical simulation and optimization of the electron gun, the resonant cavity, and other subsystems of the gyrotron are presented. The designs used for the gyrotron development are justified. Preliminary experiments showed the efficiency of the pilotproduction gyrotron with an output power of about 2 kW, which is record-breaking in this frequency range.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
