The 60-GHz gyrotron development program
Abstract
A microwave oscillator capable of producing 200 kW of CW power at 60 GHz was developed. A CW experimental tube, X-5, produced 100 kW of output power at 60 GHz. The experimental tube incorporated a thinner double disc output window to improve window bandwidth, and some modifications to the drift tunnel and cavity coupling were proven successful in earlier pulse tube tests. When the boiling problem in the waterload is solved, X-5 will produce even more output power.
