RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ON HIGH-POWER CRESTATRONS FOR THE 100-300 MC FREQUENCY RANGE

Abstract

Data on the electrostatic focusing system mounted in a beam analyzer is presented. For the voltages employed in the tests quite good transmission through the focusing structure has been observed. In addition rather complete data in the form of trajectory plots obtained from a digital computer program for the hollow-beam gun as well as the focusing system are presented. The hollow electron beam is shown to be focused quite well throughout the system. Work on the 100-300 mc metal-ceramic Crestatron is described. Some of the cold-test data obtained somewhat modifies the original calculations, but does not necessitate any design changes. The present status of tube construction is given.
