摘要:
Theoretical investigation of a broadband quasi-optical mode converter for 330-GHz TE62 mode gyrotron application is presented. The converter consists of a Vlasov launcher and three reflector mirrors. Special considerations, including a Vlasov launcher with reasonably large aperture radius and optimized combination of two elliptic reflectors and a bifocal parabolic reflector, are the keys to achieve broadband mode converting. The optimized internal converter is well compatible with the gyrotron electron-optical system and generates Gaussian beam with efficiency higher than 80% in an extraordinary broadband range between 310 and 340 GHz. The principle of the broadband converter can also be applied to gyrotron amplifiers.
