Abstract

The design of the interaction cavity of a 170 GHz gyrotron operating in the TE 34,10 mode is presented in this article. An in-house developed code GCOMS and Particle-in-Cell (PIC) code MAGIC are used for the mode selection and beam–wave interaction simulations, respectively. The cold cavity analysis and beam–wave interaction computation are carried out to analyze the eigenmode and output power, respectively. A thorough parametric analysis of the interaction cavity geometry and electron beam parameters is also carried out with respect to the output power and frequency. The results show the capability of the interaction cavity, designed for the TE 34,10 mode, to produce more than 1 MW of RF power of a gyrotron at the operating frequency of 170.03 GHz.
