Development of a 1.5 MW coaxial gyrotron at 165 GHz
- Institut fuer Technische Physik, Karlsruhe (Germany); and others
The development of a 165 GHz - 1.5 MW coaxial cavity gyrotron operating in the TE{sub 31,17} mode is presented. The selection of the operating frequency and mode are based on the limitations imposed by the maximum field of the existing SC magnet at FZK, the use of the inverse MIG of the 140 GHz-TE{sub 28,16} coaxial gyrotron, and the possibility of transforming the operating mode to a whispering gallery mode (WGM), appropriate for the dual-beam q.o. output coupler and the two output rf windows. The cavity with a tapered and longitudinally corrugated inner rod, the nonlinear uptaper and a new rf window are under construction. First experiments with an axial output tube are foreseen in November 1995.
