Abstract
Because of the scaling invariance, the over-mode ratio of the coaxial resonator can be increased to increase the power handling capability. However, as the over-mode ratio increases, the characteristic impedance and external quality factor decrease, which causes the modulation of the electron beam to be weakened. Moreover, when the output microwave power increases, the double-gap output cavity will suffer from severe radio frequency breakdown. Therefore, an X-band high-power and high-efficiency coaxial relativistic klystron oscillator with a four-gap modulation cavity and a three-gap extraction cavity is proposed. First, a four-gap modulation cavity can increase the modulation depth of the electron beam to improve the beam-wave conversion efficiency. The operating mode of the modulation cavity is the 3π/4 mode of the coaxial TM01 mode. Second, a three-gap extraction cavity is adopted to enhance the microwave extraction energy and reduce the RF field strength. The simulation results show that when the diode voltage is 650 kV, the beam current is 15.4 kA, and the guiding magnetic field is 0.48 T, the device outputs a microwave power of 4.2 GW, a frequency of 8.4 GHz, and an efficiency of 42%.
