“…The large effort at U. Maryland on gyroklystron development has lead to impressive results, including the generation of 31 MW output power and 27 dB gain at 19.8 GHz for 800 ns with a second harmonic gyroklystron [30, 31]. An output power of 24 MW at 9.87 GHz, with 34% efficiency and 34 dB gain with a gyroklystron operating at the fundamental of the cyclotron frequency has also been demonstrated [32,33]. In three cavity gyroklystron experiments, gains of up to 50dB have been obtained with 20MW output power and 28% efficiency.…”

“…Gyrotron amplifiers are of more interest for particle acceleration since the phase of the output signal can be easily controlled through an input signal. The gyroklystron, as the corresponding gyrodevice of the linear beam klystron, has been extensively investigated (Blank 1997;Cheng 1999;Gouveia 2002;Ives 2003;Lawson 1992). The gyroklystron can generate 10MW of power at a frequency as high as 91GHz (Blank 1997).…”

“…transverse electric (TE) and hybrid modes, since the cyclotron interaction is employed in gyro-devices [5][6][7][8]. Recently, slow-wave structures with complex profiles have been proposed [9] and some of them are already used in different types of microwaves devices, like multi-wave generators [2,3].…”

The dispersion characteristics of the transverse electric modes in a waveguide with circular cross-section and periodic rectangular surface corrugations with smoothed edges are examined by the space harmonic method. The whole structure is divided into two regions, one in the propagation area and one inside the grooves. In the first region, the Floquet theorem is applied and the field distribution is expressed as a summation of spatial Bloch components, while an appropriate Fourier expansion of standing waves is used inside the grooves. Applying the appropriate interface conditions, an infinite system of equations is obtained, which is solved numerically by truncation. Numerical results are presented for several cases to check the convergence and the accuracy of the method, as well as its dependence on the corrugation profile. This formalism could be easily expanded to include all kind of waves that can in principle propagate in such slow-wave structures.
