Hybrid Harmonic Gyrotron Traveling Wave Amplifier.

Abstract

This progress report summarizes the work done on the project "Hybrid Harmonic Gyrotron Traveling Wave Amplifier" covering the period from March 15, 1994 to October 31,1994. In the past seven and a half months, we have designed a compact harmonic multiplying gyro- TWT amplifier. The device is a threestage tube with the output section running as an fourth harmonic gyro-TWT, the input section running as a fundamental gyro-TWT, and the middle section operating at the second harmonic of the cyclotron frequency. Radiation is suppressed by servers between the sections. The electron beam which drives the tube is produced by a magnetron injection gun. (MM)
