Development of a High-Power Continuous-Wave Gyrotron for High-Efficiency Technological K-Band Microwave Complexes

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We analyze the possibility to create new generation continuous-wave gyrotrons operating in the Kband (at frequencies of 28-30 GHz) at the fundamental cyclotron resonance with an output power of 25–30 kW and more. For a gyrotron with a magnetically shielded solenoid, the electron-optical and electrodynamic systems have been optimized, which ensures generation with high efficiency (about 50%) at acceptable thermal loads on the key device elements. The proposed design of the gyrotron ensures long-term continuous-wave operation of the technological complex with a total system efficiency of about 35%, which is significantly superior to the existing analogs.
