Abstract
A previously proposed method, which enables feeding and extraction of microwave radiation to and from gyrotron traveling wave tubes (gyro-TWTs) using a single highly oversized barrier window has been experimentally proven. A Ka-band gyro-TWT using a helically corrugated waveguide bounded by a reflector at the cathode side and a polarizer at the collector side and also having a polarization separator at the beginning of the output transmission line has produced 6 kW CW power with $-$ 3-dB bandwidth of 2.1 GHz in the zero-drive-drive stable regime and about 9 kW power in the frequency locking regime.
