Abstract

The influence of an external non-uniform magnetic field created using a periodic magnetic focusing system on the spectral characteristics of a virtual cathode oscillator’s output radiation is investigated by means of numerical simulation. It is shown that raising the magnetization intensity of a single magnetic ring or the number of magnetic rings leads to an increase in the output microwave radiation power spectrum’s irregularity. As consequence, the output microwave signal exhibits wide-band oscillations with a bandwidth close to one octave.
