Description

Extended interaction klystron
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of high-power microwaves in vacuum electronic devices, and particularly relates to an expanded interaction klystron.
Background
The klystron as a power amplifier has the advantages of high power, high efficiency, high stability and long service life, and has important application in the aspects of high-power millimeter wave radar, long-distance high-speed wireless communication, millimeter wave electronic countermeasure, national safety, controlled nuclear fusion and industrial application.
In recent years, with the development of large scientific experimental devices and microwave electronic systems, higher requirements are put on the performance of millimeter wave devices. The Extended Interaction Klystron (EIK) combines the advantages of a coupled cavity traveling wave tube and the advantages of a traditional klystron, and is expected to realize high output power and high efficiency in a high-frequency band. The extended interaction technology uses a multi-gap resonance portion as an interaction circuit, and has the characteristics of high characteristic impedance and high unit length gain. Meanwhile, the short interaction length is suitable for permanent magnet focusing, and the risk of interception of the drift tube on electron beams can be effectively reduced. However, in order to achieve efficient beam-wave interaction, the diameter of the electron beam channel needs to be much smaller than the operating wavelength, so that the power level of the conventional single-beam EIK drops sharply in the high frequency band.
Ribbon-beam technology and multi-beam technology have been used for extended interaction devices with trapezoidal structures because they can greatly increase output power while maintaining reasonable current density and operating voltage. Common EIK chooses trapezoidal resonance portion of work in the fundamental mode as the interaction structure for use, however along with the promotion of frequency, the size of cavity can reduce rapidly, and strong electric field concentrates on in the small-size cavity this moment, can increase the risk of voltage breakdown. Meanwhile, due to the limitation of the cathode emission current density, the traditional EIK trapezoidal cavity is difficult to meet the requirement of a high-power electronic optical system on the cross section size of the cavity.

Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram of an electric field distribution of a klystron of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5, in order to expand the axial electric field distribution of the interaction klystron during operation, each cavity stably operates in TM51-2 pi mode, and the electric field intensity gradually increases from the input cavity C1 to the output cavity C4. Therefore, the coaxial high-order mode extended interaction klystron has the advantages that the interaction structure can stably and efficiently carry out the injection-wave interaction with five electron beams which are uniformly distributed in an angular direction.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, electrons generated by a cathode in an external electron generating device are converged into a direct current electron beam through a control electrode and an anode, the direct current electron beam enters a first resonant cavity through an electron beam channel, meanwhile, a seed signal enters the first resonant cavity through an annular input cavity, and the direct current electron beam is preliminarily modulated in the first resonant cavity to form certain velocity clustering. The dc electron beam is then continuously modulated through the intermediate resonators and the drift region between adjacent resonators gradually converts the velocity modulation into a density modulation, forming a cluster. And finally, the clustered beam clusters and the gap electric field in the second resonant cavity generate stronger beam-wave interaction, the energy is transferred to electromagnetic waves, and finally, the generated output signals are radiated out through the annular output cavity.
The present invention provides an extended interaction klystron in which the resonating section and the grating section have different lateral dimensions. According to the distribution characteristics of coaxial high-order TM mode electric fields, the adjacent electric field extreme values can be equivalent to an ideal electric wall, and the working mode electric field extreme values are respectively positioned in each resonance part and each grating part (a fan-shaped cavity). In addition, the invention uses TM51-2 pi mode as interaction mode, and under the same frequency operation, the transverse TM51 mode has larger transverse cavity size than the TM01 mode. Meanwhile, according to the injection-wave synchronization condition, the axial 2 pi mode enables the cavity to have the largest axial size, so that the power capacity and the heat dissipation performance of the cavity can be improved, and the millimeter wave high-power application scene is more suitable. Further, compared with the existing angular uniform coupling structure, the design enables the interaction electric field to be more concentrated near the electron beam channel, so that the characteristic impedance of the beam-wave interaction position is improved.
The embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above. However, these examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Although the embodiments are described separately above, this does not mean that the measures in the embodiments cannot be used in advantageous combination. The scope of the disclosure is defined by the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
