Title: 100 kW, 140 GHz pulsed gyrotron

Abstract

The design and operation of a 100 kW, 140 GHz pulsed gyrotron are reported. To our knowledge, this is the highest frequency at which high gyrotron output power (greater than or equal to 100 kW) has been achieved. Results are presented for gyrotron operation in the range of magnetic field from 4 to 7 T, voltage from 23 to 80 kV and current up to 7.5 A. Near a value of magnetic field of 5.4 T, an output power of 100 kW was obtained at 140.4 GHz in single mode operation in the TE/sub 031/ resonator mode.
