Abstract

Self-oscillation of three cascaded reflectors easily occurs in a triaxial klystron amplifier (TKA) since the TEM mode leakage cannot be cut off by a coaxial waveguide. To solve this issue, we propose a non-uniform reflector to obtain an optimal external quality factor, which indicates its minimum TEM mode leakage. The self-oscillation of three non-uniform reflectors is then suppressed by selecting a specific drift tube length between them. Moreover, different eigenfrequencies are chosen for the three improved reflectors to enhance the tolerance of the drift tube length between them. With these methods, the self-oscillation of three cascaded reflectors can be successfully eliminated, and a TKA with high output efficiency is capable of achieving a long pulse output.
