1 Institute for Plasma Research MURI 99 Frequency Doubling Harmonic Gyro-TWT’s (development and experimental studies) We will complete the optimization of operating parameters and measurements of output power, gain, bandwidth, efficiency, phase noise and stability of the Ka-band TE 03 frequency doubling gyro-TWT by Dec. 1999. The device is predicted to produce output power at 35 Ghz of more than 200 kW with 30 dB gain, a bandwidth of nearly 1%, efficiency at least 20%, mean phase deviation less than 2 degrees and be zero drive stable.

2 Institute for Plasma Research MURI 99 Frequency Doubling Harmonic Gyro-TWT’s (development and experimental studies) A new frequency multiplying, harmonic gyro-TWT is currently under development. Simulations of the TE 0n fundamental input and harmonic output circuits show that more than 5% bandwidth may be achievable. Cold testing of the structures and plans to fabricate the tube are underway. Input Mode Launcher and Converter Extended Interaction Output Circuit

3 Institute for Plasma Research MURI 99 Novel Fast-wave Amplifier Concepts (Theory) Nonlinear theory of two-stage gyro-TWT’s operating –at the fundamental cyclotron resonance, –in the frequency doubling regime. Theory of a gyro-TWT with a waveguide partially loaded with a lossy dielectric for realizing stable, high gain operation.
