Abstract

Linear and nonlinear stages of the oscillation adjustment in a model of a source of millimeter-wavelength radiation (clinotron) are analyzed using the nonstationary theory of interaction in a system consisting of a thick electron beam and a backward wave. The duration of the transient process is studied as a function of the ratio of the working and starting currents and an angle of incidence on the surface of a slow-wave structure. It is demonstrated that the minimum duration of the process is reached in the vicinity of the optimal regime in which the beam is completely deposited on the surface of the slow-wave structure.
