Design of 1.1T/300 mm Bitter-type magnet for gyro-traveling-wave tube with power consumption optimization theory.

To improve the portability of magnets in gyrotron devices, we designed a compact Bitter-type magnet with power consumption optimization theory. This magnet operates at room temperature in a small volume. The theory revises existing electromagnetic theory for non-uniform structural Bitter-type magnets and achieves the lowest energy consumption through iterative optimization.

Design and verification of a backward wave oscillation suppression circuit for the Ka-band gyrotron travelling-wave tube.

Backward wave oscillation seriously degrades the stability of gyrotron travelling-wave tubes (gyro-TWTs), especially during high average/continuous wave operation. To solve this problem, a selective mode suppression structure (SMSS) based on the mode coupling principle is proposed and applied in the nonlinear beam-wave interaction region to suppress the parasitic TE11 mode. It is capable of obtaining a high power and improving the tube stability.

Broadband rectangular TE mode exciter with H-plane power dividers for 100 GHz confocal gyro-devices.

A generic approach to excite TE (n ≥ 1) modes in a rectangular waveguide for confocal gyro-devices is proposed. The exciter consists of a 3 dB H-plane power divider (n ≥ 3) and a mode-converting section. The injection power is split into two in-phase signals with equal amplitudes which simultaneously excite the secondary waveguide via two sets of multiple slots.
