Amplification of Picosecond Pulses in a 140-GHz Gyrotron-Traveling Wave Tube

Amplification of Picosecond Pulses in a 140-GHz Gyrotron-Traveling Wave Tube

An experimental study of picosecond pulse amplification in a gyrotron-traveling wave tube (gyro-TWT) has been carried out. The gyro-TWT operates with 30 dB of small signal gain near 140 GHz in the HE06 mode of a confocal waveguide. Picosecond pulses show broadening and transit time delay due to two...
