The electron tube that travelling wave tube is most widely used as microwave frequency band has outstanding application status in various fields such as millimetre-wave radar, guidance, communication, microwave remote sensing, radiation measurements.Because its broadband characteristics that can not be substituted also become most important a kind of microwave tube in each field equipment.
A typical travelling wave tube is comprised of electron gun, focusing system, slow wave line (slow wave structure), input/output unit and collector five parts.Core component as travelling wave tube, the task of slow wave line is the carry high frequency electromagnetic running wave and makes electromagnetic phase velocity drop to synchronizing speed, and realize that electromagnetic wave is to the modulation of electron beam, amplify radio-frequency field thereby make electron beam surrender dc energy, its performance quality has directly determined bandwidth of operation, power output and the efficient etc. of travelling wave tube.
At present, slow wave line commonly used mainly contains helix and distressed structure, coupling cavity and distressed structure thereof.Wherein, helix class travelling wave tube has very wide bandwidth, can reach several octaves, but because technological problems, helix is mainly used in the following frequency range of Ka, is very limited in the application of front end; And the ladder track of coupling cavity and distressed structure thereof has very high power capacity, can reach hundreds of watts, and can be applied to V and with super band, but bandwidth is far away from helix.At W and with super band, the distortion of the another kind of coupling cavity structure---winding waveguide has good performance, and it is because easy to process, and power capacity has been subject to greatly paying close attention to widely, has preferably application prospect.
But, for conventional travelling wave tube, raising along with operating frequency, the size of slow wave line must significantly reduce, this can significantly reduce the size of electron beam passage, and corresponding electron gun just must dwindle, and therefore the overall dimensions of travelling wave tube also reduces, so the travelling wave tube own vol no longer is the principal element that the restriction travelling wave tube is used.By contrast, the operating voltage that increases with the operating frequency rising is more obvious to the restriction of travelling wave tube range of application.Helix TWT operating voltage when S-band is 4KV, and is 18KV in Ka wave band operating voltage, and the operating voltage of coupling cavity class travelling wave tube also is volts up to ten thousand.So high voltage needs huge power supply to provide, and this has just proposed strict requirement to usage space, and this also is that solid state device can replace one of key factor of vacuum device in low-frequency range.Therefore, seek the low-voltage slow wave line cost that reduces travelling wave tube, the application of expansion travelling wave tube are had great facilitation.
The logarithm helix slow wave line is a kind of slow wave line with very low operation voltage, and its operating voltage greatly reduces the demand of power supply in hectovolt.But so low voltage means that the direct current input power of travelling wave tube can not be too large, and corresponding power output is also limited, in hectowatt.Improving its power output then needs to improve operating voltage, is exactly the index multiple increase of structure radial dimension according to the conventional method cost, and this is unacceptable.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, a kind of radially logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line is provided, guarantee that in the operating voltage that significantly reduces travelling wave tube it has higher power output, thereby make travelling wave tube have lower cost and wider application.
For achieving the above object, the present invention is logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line radially, it is characterized in that, comprising:
Be vacuum chamber in one metal shielding, metal shielding, top side, bottom side are fan-shaped in it;
One fan-shaped dielectric-slab places bottom side in the metal shielding;

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the specific embodiment of the present invention is described, so that those skilled in the art understands the present invention better.What need to point out especially is that in the following description, when perhaps the detailed description of known function and design can desalinate main contents of the present invention, these were described in here and will be left in the basket.
Fig. 1 is radially a kind of embodiment structural representation of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line of the present invention.
In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, the present invention is logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line radially, is a kind of quasi-periodic structure radially, adopts the work of plane sector electron beam.It can be regarded as by four part-structures and form, and is followed successively by under upper: fan-shaped vacuum chamber 2, angle be logarithm spiral metal band 4, fan-shaped dielectric-slab 5 and fan-shaped metallic plate radially.Fan-shaped vacuum chamber is comprised of the cavity that metal shielding 1 forms, and metal shielding 1 interior top side, bottom side are fan-shaped; Fan-shaped dielectric-slab 5 places metal shielding 1 interior bottom side, and places shape and metal shielding 1 interior fan-shaped bottom side is consistent;
Angle radially logarithm spiral metal band 4 is a part of camber line of θ for intercepting angle on the single radially logarithm helix microstrip line, and will intercept the metal tape composition that the adjacent head and the tail of camber line alternately connect, and place on the fan-shaped dielectric-slab 5 according to fan-shaped dielectric-slab 5 identical placement shapes; Angle radially the inner of logarithm spiral metal band 4 is the electromagnetic wave input, and external port is the electromagnetic wave output;
The plane sector electron beam is radially launched logarithm spiral metal band inboard laterally from angle.In the present embodiment, plane sector electron beam 3 keeps thickness and angle constant in the process that collector (not shown) is to the right moved by being positioned at the radially side-emitted of the fan-shaped negative electrode (not shown) in logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line left side.Radially each dimensional parameters of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line also marks in Fig. 1, and wherein, L is the height of fan-shaped vacuum chamber 2, and t is the radially thickness of logarithm spiral metal band spiral shell 4 of angle, and h is fan-shaped medium base plate 5 thickness, and d is the thickness of plane sector electron beam 3.
Fig. 2 is radially logarithm spiral metal band camber line intercepting schematic diagram of angle shown in Figure 1.
In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, angle radially logarithm spiral metal band camber line can obtain with method once: be a part of camber line of θ from single radially logarithm helix microstrip line intercepting angle shown in Figure 2.
Fig. 3 is angle logarithm spiral metal band structure schematic diagram radially among Fig. 2.
In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the adjacent head and the tail of camber line of intercepting are alternately linked to each other and obtain radially logarithm spiral metal band of angle.Angle radially logarithm spiral metal band satisfies log spiral equation under the polar coordinates:
Figure BDA00002299790100042
Wherein, r1 be angle radially on the logarithm spiral metal band phase place equal
Figure BDA00002299790100043
The radius in inboard sideline, some place, r2 be angle radially on the logarithm spiral metal band phase place equal
Figure BDA00002299790100044
The radius in sideline, the some place outside, a is the radially start radius of logarithm spiral metal band inboard of angle, and b has determined the radially logarithm spiral metal band constant of density radially of angle, claims again the pitch coefficient, general value 0.01 ~ 0.1, w is the radially width of logarithm spiral metal band of angle.
The electromagnetic radial velocity v that angle is radially transmitted on the logarithm spiral metal band rWith the alignment speed v lSatisfy following relation:
v r = e 4 bπ - 1 [ b 2 + 1 b ( e bθ - 1 ) + e bθ ( e 2 bθ - 1 ) + b 2 + 1 b e 2 π ( e bθ - 1 ) + e 2 bπ ( e 2 bπ - 1 ) ] v t - - - ( 2 )
Can find out radial velocity v from formula (2) rOnly with pitch coefficient b, angle θ is relevant, and and phase place
Figure BDA00002299790100046
Irrelevant, show electromagnetic wave radial velocity v rIt is the constant that does not rely on radius r.That is to say, determined in the situation at angle θ and pitch coefficient b, angle is electromagnetic wave radial velocity v on the logarithm spiral metal band radially rThereupon fixed, the change with radial position does not change yet.Adjust anode voltage and make plane sector electron beam speed be slightly larger than the electromagnetic wave radial velocity, this just can guarantee can both annotate in whole electron beam channel-the Bo mutual effect when electronics moves with constant radial velocity.Energy at the fan-shaped electron beam of this process midplane continues to give electromagnetic wave, and finally obtains electromagnetic amplification.
Fig. 4 is angle shown in Figure 2 when radially logarithm spiral metal band is got different pitch coefficient b and angle θ, normalization phase velocity change curve.
From Fig. 4, can find out: radially the normalization of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line radially phase velocity reduce with the increase of angle θ with the reducing and reduce of pitch coefficient b.Normalization pixel v radially among the figure r/ c=0.112 is the normalization phase velocity of the helical line slow-wave structure that operating voltage is minimum in the conventional travelling wave tube, and corresponding operating voltage is U=4800V; And v r/ c=0.01 is that pitch coefficient b got 0.01 o'clock, and the present invention is the minimum normalization phase velocity of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line radially, and corresponding operating voltage is about U=26V, and much smaller than the travelling wave tube of routine, and so low voltage means very little power output.
It can also be seen that from Fig. 4, if increase the radially operating voltage of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line, namely increase the normalization phase velocity of structure, the value that only needs suitable increase pitch coefficient b, perhaps subtract the value of small angle theta, just can obtain in theory arbitrarily normalization phase velocity value, also just can obtain being operated in the radially logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line of setting arbitrarily under the voltage.
The present invention radially operating voltage of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line then has larger advantage far below the helix TWT of the low-work voltage of routine with respect to coupling cavity class travelling wave tube.And compare with the radially logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line of prior art, the present invention radially logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line has wider operating voltage tuning range, in the situation that electron beam current is identical, this means wider direct current input power tuning range, also mean larger power output, can be applied in the larger situation of power requirement.
Because the focusing of plane sector electron beam is difficult to realize, during practical application, can overlap radially with one that electron-optical system substitutes, as shown in Figure 5.The 6th, cylindrical cathode, adopt heat emission, circular Radial Electron Beam is from the cylindrical side surface launching of negative electrode, because that the negative electrode radius can be done is very large, the negative electrode that the electric current that it can be launched also adopts far above conventional travelling wave tube, this also is one of advantage of radially restrainting by travelling wave tube; The 7th, a pair of circular anode, circular Radial Electron Beam pass in the middle of it, and are accelerated to the synchronous speed of electromagnetic wave radial velocity of radially transmitting in the logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line with the present invention by it; The 8th, a pair of focusing system remains unchanged in order to keep the thickness of circular Radial Electron Beam in motion process, avoids circular Radial Electron Beam to disperse getting to the present invention radially on the logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line, also makes notes-Bo mutual effect intensity more concentrated; The 9th, depressed collector, effect is the electron recovery that work is over, and reclaims simultaneously a part of dc energy; The 10th, the passage of reserving is in order to place radially logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line of the present invention.
In order to take full advantage of circular Radial Electron Beam, can with a plurality of angles radially logarithm spiral metal band be integrated on the circular dielectric-slab of a slice (substrate), share one and overlap radially electron-optical system work, be equivalent to so circular Radial Electron Beam is divided into a plurality of plane sector electron beams, can there be at most 360/ θ, as get θ=45 °, radially logarithm spiral metal band of 9 angles then can be arranged.As shown in Figure 6, four angles logarithm spiral metal band 401,402,403,404 evenly distributed around cylindrical cathode 6 radially.The shape that had so both guaranteed electron beam meets the demands, and has also simplified the design of electron-optical system, and takes full advantage of the space, by power synthetic technique, can obtain larger power output.
In the present embodiment, such as Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, in the ka frequency range, the present invention radially size of logarithm helix microstrip slow wave line concrete scheme is as follows: a=4mm, b=0.02, L=0.5mm, w=0.02mm, h=0.1mm, t=0.052mm, z=0.01mm, θ=30 °, fan-shaped medium base plate adopts the dielectric material with little dielectric constant.Its normalization phase velocity is 0.065, and corresponding operating voltage is about 1080V, adopts the electron beam work of 2A.
Although the above is described the illustrative embodiment of the present invention; so that those skilled in the art understand the present invention; but should be clear; the invention is not restricted to the scope of embodiment; to those skilled in the art; as long as various variations appended claim limit and the spirit and scope of the present invention determined in, these variations are apparent, all utilize innovation and creation that the present invention conceives all at the row of protection.
