Description

Broadband energy transmission window for terahertz vacuum electronic device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of vacuum electronic devices. And more particularly, to a broadband power transmission window for terahertz vacuum electronic devices.
Background
The vacuum electronic device has important application value in the fields of communication, imaging, detection and the like, and the main obstacle restricting the development of the vacuum electronic device is that the output power level is lower. The microwave energy transmission window is an important component of the vacuum electronic device. The energy transmission window can ensure that the vacuum electronic device works under a vacuum condition, and also ensures small reflection and low input and output loss. In the terahertz frequency band, the loss of electromagnetic waves passing through the window is large, the structural size is very small, and the requirements on the strength, the thermal property and the dielectric constant of materials of the window frame and the window are more strict.
Most of the energy transmission windows used at present are box-shaped windows. The box-shaped window has the advantages of simple structure, mature process, wide cold measurement bandwidth and the like, and the electric field on the surface of the window sheet is weak, so that the box-shaped window can bear high peak power and is easy to cool structurally. The device is widely used in the fields of vacuum electronic devices, magnetrons, gyrotrons, klystrons, accelerators and the like. The basic structure of the conventional box window is shown in fig. 1A and 1B. The two ends of the window are connected with the standard rectangular waveguide, and the center of the middle circular waveguide is hermetically welded with the medium window sheet.
Although the electrical parameters such as bandwidth, loss and the like of the traditional box-shaped window can meet the actual requirements, the welding is difficult, the structural strength is weak and the vacuum airtightness reliability is low due to the adoption of the side wall sealing process. Especially in the terahertz frequency band, the structure size is very small, and the sealing is more difficult. In practice, therefore, a standard box window is generally used, and its basic structure is shown in fig. 2A and 2B. The dielectric window sheet of the standard box-shaped window has a larger diameter than the circular waveguide, and the edge of the window sheet is sealed with the circular waveguide, so that the structural strength and the air tightness reliability are greatly improved.
At present, the bandwidth of the standard box-shaped window with reflection less than-20 dB can reach 49.5GHz, and the requirement of 190-240GHz frequency band is met, but the sensitivity of the diameter and the length of the circular waveguide is too high, the processing error of +/-0.01 mm can cause the great deterioration of the window performance, the yield is low, and the standard box-shaped window is not suitable for batch production.
Therefore, it is desirable to provide an energy delivery window that is easy to manufacture and meets the frequency band requirements.

Specifically, the broadband energy transmission window of the present invention includes: the rectangular waveguide 1, the gradual change section 2, the circular waveguide 3 and the dielectric window 4 are arranged from two ends inwards and are sequentially concentric with a central shaft 5; the dielectric window sheet 4 is hermetically welded with the circular waveguides 3 on the two sides, so that the vacuum property of the energy transmission window is guaranteed; the broadband energy transmission window is symmetrical about the dielectric window 4, namely, the waveguides on two sides of the dielectric window 4 are symmetrically distributed; whereinThe gradual change section 2 consists of a rectangular waveguide 1 and a metal groove 21 formed outside a central line 6 of the wide side of the rectangular waveguide; the metal slot 21 is symmetrical about the plane where the center line 6 and the center line 5 of the rectangular waveguide broadside are located, and the broadside length a of the metal slot 211Is less than the width side length a of the rectangular waveguide 12Perpendicular distance R of metal groove 21 from central axis 52Smaller than the radius R of the circular waveguide 31
In a specific implementation, the shape of the metal groove in the small transition section includes, but is not limited to, a square, a rectangle, an arc, etc., and the metal groove in fig. 3 and 4 is an arc. When the metal groove is arc-shaped, the vertical distance between the metal groove and the central axis refers to the radius of the arc of the cross section of the arc-shaped metal groove.

In specific examples, the dielectric louver material includes, but is not limited to, CVD diamond, sapphire, beryllium oxide, aluminum nitride, or the like.
In the specific implementation process, the smaller the reflection coefficient at two ports of the energy transmission window and the rectangular waveguide are connected, the better the matching is, and the wider the frequency band is, the better the matching is.
