Abstract

We present experimental results for a 93.2-GHz gyroklystron amplifier operated in the high-order TE021 cavity mode in a cryomagnet. In a three-cavity gyroklystron, a peak output power of 340 kW with 27% efficiency, 23-dB saturated gain, and 0.41% (380 MHz) bandwidth was obtained with a 75-kV, 17-A electron beam. The output-power and efficiency restriction was due to the selfexcitation of the TE021 operating mode in the output cavity. The influence of the electron beam current and intermediate cavity Q-factor on output characteristics of a three-cavity gyroklystron has been studied experimentally.
