Abstract

The effect of interaction cavity geometry on the gyrotron performance in terms of cold cavity parameters (Q value and axial electric field profile), Ohmic wall loss, start oscillation current and interaction efficiency are analyzed in detail in this article. The measurement of Q value and axial electric field profile is also performed for the cavities with different geometries by using non-destructive and perturbation techniques, respectively. Scattering matrix code is used for the computation of Q value and axial electric field profile and results are compared with the experimental data. A Particle-in-Cell code and a specific beam–wave interaction computation code based on generalized non-linear theory are used in the efficiency calculations. For all numerical and experimental analyses, the case of 42GHz, 200kW gyrotron is considered here.
