X-BAND ELECTROMAGNETIC AMPLIFYING LENS.

Abstract

This report covers the work done during the period February 25, 1964 through May 25, 1964, under Contract No. AF30(602)-2892, to build and evaluate an experimental Electromagnetic Amplifying Lens (EAL) at X-band which will demonstrate the practicality of the EAL principle, and to carry out a theoretical and experimental investigation of fabrication techniques and tube components necessary for the embodiment of the EAL principle in a practical super power millimeter wave oscillator or amplifier. During the sixth quarter, the EAL was reassembled. The new tube incorporates a water cooled anode and two water cooled cathodes, and the whose assembly is such that the anode-cathode spacing for both cathodes is everywhere uniform to within 1% or better. Additional work has been conducted on the construction of bi-uniform millimeter-wave structures using the multi-blade machine. (Author)
