Abstract

The invention relates to a ridge loading zigzag waveguide slow wave line which belongs to the technical field of microwave vacuum electrons and relates to a traveling wave tube amplification device. The device is formed by connecting a series of arc bending waveguides (or right-angle bending waveguides) and straight waveguides end to end, i.e. bending rectangular waveguides into a U-shaped zigzag line (or a right-angle zigzag line) periodically along the electric field surface, so as to form a zigzag waveguide structure. A metal ridge sheet with a certain thickness is loaded on the inner walls of the straight waveguides of each zigzag unit, and the waveguide walls and the metal ridge sheets are provided with round through holes along the position of a middle axle symmetric line of a slow wave structure, wherein the round through holes of the straight waveguides of two adjacent zigzag units are connected through a metal pipe with an aperture size the same as the aperture size of the round through hole so as to form an electron bunch passage. The invention can improve the coupling impedance of a zigzag waveguide slow wave system, thereby ensuring that a zigzag waveguide traveling wave tube has higher gain and efficiency.

Description

A kind of ridge loading winding waveguide slow wave line
Technical field
The invention belongs to the microwave vacuum electronic technology field, relate to travelling-wave tube amplifier spare.
Background technology
Travelling wave tube has the incomparable superiority of other devices as the electron tube that microwave frequency band is most widely used.Slow wave line is as the core component of travelling wave tube notes-Bo mutual effect, and its performance quality has directly determined the technical merit of travelling wave tube.Helix and coupling cavity are most popular slow wave systems in the travelling wave tube always.Though helix TWT has the above bandwidth of octave, power output is subjected to the restriction of heat dissipation ability; Particularly when travelling wave tube works in short centimetre and millimere-wave band, because the helix lateral dimension is minimum, the heat radiation difficulty, its power capacity is littler.Though coupled-cavity TWT has the power level than the high order of magnitude of helix, pulse power can be up to hundreds of kW, because the influence of band edge vibration, its bandwidth is very narrow.In addition, the millimeter wave coupled-cavity TWT is small-sized, and processing, assembly precision require high, and rate of finished products is low, the cost height.Therefore, searching can be operated in millimere-wave band, and the novel TWT slow wave structure of function admirable just seems very necessary.
Winding waveguide slow wave line as shown in Figure 1, is the novel all-metal slow wave line of a class, and it is periodically bent to perpendicular type meander line or U type meander line and form along electric field face (the wide face of waveguide) by rectangular waveguide 1; At position opened round through hole on wave guide wall along the axis line of symmetry 2 of slow wave structure; Periodically between two manholes of trough with straight angle or U type groove, use the metal tube identical 3 to connect in each of slow wave structure then, form electronics and annotate passage with the manhole aperture size.Winding waveguide slow wave line longitudinally the plane of symmetry profile as shown in Figure 2.This slow wave structure has good broadband performance when realizing high power capacity.This structure mainly contains that mechanical strength height, good heat dissipation, power capacity are big, processing is than being easier to and the relatively simple advantage of input and output coupled structure.Simultaneously, owing to can adopt Micrometer-Nanometer Processing Technology manufacturing, the miniature winding waveguide travelling wave tube that with the winding waveguide slow wave structure is core becomes a kind of high-power, miniaturized radiation source in that millimere-wave band is very potential, has good application prospects in fields such as military electronic system and broadband millimeter-wave communications.
But,, be operated on the negative primary space harmonic wave, so the coupling impedance of this slow wave structure is lower because the winding waveguide slow wave system belongs to the system that first-harmonic is the back ripple.According to Pierre's Si theory, the gain of travelling wave tube is directly proportional with the gain parameter; The gain parameter of travelling wave tube is: C 3 = KcI 0 4 V 0 , Wherein Kc is a coupling impedance, I 0, V 0Be respectively beam current and voltage.Large signal theory the analysis showed that electronic efficiency has following relation: η Emax=KC, wherein k=0.5~7.Therefore, coupling impedance is as the parameter that characterizes slow wave system and beam coupling power, and is directly related with efficient with the gain of travelling wave tube.According to existing domestic and international related experiment report,, make the gain of travelling wave tube integral body and efficient be limited because the coupling impedance of winding waveguide slow wave structure is low.
