The 60-GHz gyrotron development program
Abstract
A microwave oscillator capable of producing 200 kW of CW power at 60GHz was developed. A modified cavity was demonstrated in a pulsed tube to have improved dynamic range. A secondary task of developing a 56 GHz CW tube produced in excess of 100 kW at this alternate frequency. A larger cone waterload suffered from lack of rf beam divergence. Waterload designs are being constructed and tested in conjunction with X-6, a with cavity and window designs. Additional alternative window designs are being explored and developed.
