DEVELOPMENT OF LOW NOISE TRAVELING-WAVE TUBES PHASE III: ENVIRONMENTALIZATION.
Abstract
The X-band life test tube has passed 2,300 hours of operation with only slight degradation of performance, while two S-band tubes have passed 700 hours with virtually no change of performance. One C-band tube was being environmentally tested at the end of the reporting period. This tube will be on life test during the next period. One L-band vacuum envelope of the 300-volt helix design was partially tested during the period, but it developed a grid 2-to-grid 3 short before any significant data could be obtained. (Author)
