Abstract

A tapered reflection-type gyrotron amplifier(33kV, 1.2A) has been designed and built. The amplifier incorporates precise axial tapering of both the magnetic field and the interaction circuit for stable broadband operation(27-34 GHz). Cold test results show that the tube presents an excellent RF match over the entire operating band. This device will be used to explore the performance characteristics of low voltage operation.
