A W-BAND GYRO-BWO USING A HELICALLY CORRUGATED WAVEGUIDE

摘要：

Presented in this paper is the design of a W-Band Gyro-BWO with a helically corrugated waveguide and a cusp electron gun. The interaction region has been constructed with good accuracy and microwave results measured using a vector network analyzer are given. The microwave dispersion agrees well with analytical and numerical theory. The transmission loss of this helically corrugated waveguide was measured to be ~1dB over the frequency range (84-104GHz). A cusp electron gun has been designed to generate a 1.5A, 40kV electron beam with an adjustable pitch angle (α) of up to 3. The beam was optimized through numerical simulation with an axial velocity spread, Δvz/Vz, of 7％ and Δα/α, of 10.4％ at α=1.65. From simulation of the beam-wave interaction the maximum output power from the Gyro-BWO was predicted to be 10kW (CW) at 17％ efficiency, with a 3dB frequency tuning range of～84-104GHz.
