Theory of harmonic gyrotron oscillator with slotted resonant structure
Abstract
A small signal theory is presented of the harmonic gyrotron oscillator with a slotted resonator. The magnetron-type wall structure has the effect of creating a strong harmonic field near the electron orbits and, as a result, greatly reducing the beam voltage and start-oscillation power required for harmonic operations. Characteristics of operation and methods of optimization are studied and numerically illustrated. It is shown that at a given harmonic the startoscillation beam power is lower at a lower beam voltage.
