Abstract
The analysis of the multimode behavior of the interaction cavity for 42-GHz gyrotron is presented here. The in-house developed codes single-mode cold cavity solver (SMCCS) and GYCAD and commercial particle-in-cell (PIC) simulator MAGIC are used in the design and analysis of 42-GHz gyrotron cavity. SMCCS is used for the calculation of cold cavity parameters such as <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$Q$ </tex-math></inline-formula> factor, resonant frequency, and the axial electric field profile, which are further used in the beam–wave interaction computation. The PIC code is used here for the parametric optimization and time-dependent-multimode beam–wave interaction simulations of the interaction cavity. The mode purity in terms of the electromagnetic power in individual modes is also calculated using the data generated in the beam–wave interaction simulations. The single-mode analysis of the cavity is also performed using the analytical code GYCAD based on the generalized nonlinear theory. The results obtained by the PIC simulator and GYCAD are discussed and compared here. The analysis of the electron beam misalignment, which may occur due to the radial shifting or tilting of the different components during the fabrication of the device, is also performed and the effects on the efficiency, mode competition, and mode stability are discussed in detail.
