High Heat Flux Thermal Management of Microfabricated Upper Millimeter-Wave Vacuum Electronic Devices

Abstract

Computations of operating temperatures in micro-fabricated upper-millimeter-wave sheet beam traveling wave structures are provided. The studies include the effects of different cooling techniques and construction materials. The scaling of output power capability vs. frequency, as constrained by thermal limits, is also presented.
