Abstract

The operation of a millimeter-wave harmonic gyrotron is described in which the interaction is between large-orbit axis-encircling electrons and cylindrical cavity TEnll modes. Efficiencies up to 15% have been measured for moderate harmonic interactions and multi-kW power levels have been attained at the tenth harmonic of the cyclotron frequency. The concept allows the magnetic field of the gyrotron to be reduced by an order of magnitude, thereby making a submillimeter-wave gyrotron feasible.
