Abstract

Proof-of-principle results for a mode selective input coupler are presented. Transmission and reflection measurements for the TE/sub 02/ cylindrical waveguide mode are given along with the output mode pattern. The results show good agreement for the cutoff frequency, mode pattern general behavior and variation with frequency for signals above cutoff. A maximum passband of 1.2 GHz (/spl sim/7%) has been achieved. Comparisons with theory for overall frequency response (from 15 to 18 GHz) and mode pattern characteristics (at 17.5 GHz) are also presented. The design and concept are promising for harmonic gyrotron-traveling-wave-tube amplifier and phase-locked gyrotron oscillator applications.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
