Design and testing of an internal mode converter for a 1.5 MW, 110 GHz gyrotron with a depressed collector

We report experimental results on a 1.5 MW, 110 GHz, 3 microsecond pulsed gyrotron with a single-stage depressed collector. A simplified mode converter with smooth mirror surfaces has been installed in the tube. The converter was designed with the code SURF3D. We present the hot and cold test result...

description We report experimental results on a 1.5 MW, 110 GHz, 3 microsecond pulsed gyrotron with a single-stage depressed collector. A simplified mode converter with smooth mirror surfaces has been installed in the tube. The converter was designed with the code SURF3D. We present the hot and cold test results of the internal mode converter. The hot and cold test measurements show good agreement.
