TRANSVERSE WAVE INTERACTION IN ELECTRON DEVICES.
Abstract
Experimental evidence was accumulated regarding amplification at 600 MHz by means of a thin electron beam and two Cuccia couplers (no pump structures). Gains up to 30 db were readily reproducible, but the RF ower output was less than one milliwatt at a few per cent efficiency. Tuning by the dc magnetic field and by the beam voltage was demonstrated. The process seems to depend upon dc modes excited in the beam by its irregular injection into the magnetic field. Experiments with an oscillator based upon a hollow beam and a single Cuccia coupler are also included. (Author)
