A Staggered Double Vane Traveling Wave Tube Incorporating a Cavity
摘要
A novel slow wave structure (SWS) design is proposed, incorporating a rectangular cavity to enhance output efficiency in G-band applications. Through the field induction, this configuration significantly improves beam-wave interaction efficiency while maintaining a straightforward geometry suitable for precision machining. Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations demonstrate that the rectangular cavity SWS (RC-SWS) achieves superior output performance compared to conventional designs of equivalent length. This performance improvement is attained without introducing complex geometrical features that would compromise fabrication feasibility.
