Scaling of an 85 GHz Gyrotron to Operate at 94 GHz

Abstract

This paper describes how a 94 GHz, 70 kV gyrotron operating in the TE13 mode was designed and built. The novel feature of the design is that it was based to a large degree on a previously built gyrotron that operated at a lower frequency. The highest efficiency achieved was 32% at 4A which agrees well with theoretical predictions. The highest power measured was 135 kW at 12 A. Keywords: Gyrotron; Microwaves; Maser. (jhd)
