New Radiation Input/Output Systems for Millimeter-Wave Gyrotron Traveling-Wave Tubes

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We consider in detail the method allowing one to input and output the microwave radiation produced by an elecrovacuum amplifier through the same barrier window, which was proposed earlier, in the context of its application in a traveling-wave tube based on a waveguide with a helically corrugated surface. Special attention is given to the splitter of differently polarized radiation, and the results of studying this splitter at wavelengths of about 6 and 1 mm theoretically and experimentally are presented.
