Description

A kind of ladder track structure slow wave line
Technical field
The utility model belongs to microwave vacuum technical field of electronic devices, more specifically says, relates to a kind of ladder track structure slow wave line in travelling wave tube.
Background technology
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.Due to its broadband feature can not be substituted, modern travelling wave tube has become most important a kind of microwave tube in the equipment of each field.
A typical travelling wave tube is made up of electron gun, focusing system, slow wave line (slow wave structure), input/output unit and collector five parts.As the core component of travelling wave tube, the task of slow wave line is carry high frequency electromagnetic running wave and makes electromagnetic phase velocity drop to synchronizing speed, to realize the modulation of electromagnetic wave to electron beam, amplifies radio-frequency field thereby make electron beam surrender DC energy.Therefore, slow wave line is as the core component of dominant wave interaction of traveling wave tubes excitation microwave energy, and its performance has directly determined bandwidth of operation, power output and the efficiency etc. of travelling wave tube, is determining the technical merit of travelling wave tube.
In travelling wave tube, most popular slow wave structure is coupling cavity and helix.
The dispersion characteristics of helical line slow-wave structure are smooth, and working band is wide, in the travelling wave tube of low-frequency range, are widely used; But due to factors such as heat radiation difficulties, the power output of helix TWT is restricted; Particularly when travelling wave tube is operated in centimetre and when millimere-wave band, because helix lateral dimension is minimum, heat radiation difficulty, and the size of electron beam passage becomes very little, seriously restricted its power capacity.
Traditional Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave comprises Hughes's structure, cloverleaf structure, Chodoro-Ndos structure etc.Compared to helical line slow-wave structure, Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave adopts multiple cavitys as slow wave structure, therefore have larger coupling impedance, thereby interaction efficiency is higher; By selecting suitable cavity size and cavity coupling technique, can improve the speed of electron beam, thereby can realize high peak power; In addition, because Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave belongs to the all-metal construction being made up of copper and iron substantially, mechanical strength is high, thermal resistance is little, can provide higher average power, but the bandwidth of Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave is narrower.In addition, at millimeter wave band, Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave small-sized, the major issue according to the facing manufacturing technology of the Coupled-Cavity Slow Wave of traditional approach design: require very harsh, assembly precision to require high to the mismachining tolerance of part, rate of finished products is low, and cost is high.
Ladder track structure slow wave line is the simple coupling cavity structure of a kind of simple in structure, easy processing.It is by slotting on copper coin, the mode of formation " ladder " shape or " comb " shape structure is manufactured, utilize in the mode of broach top cutting half slot and form electron beam channel, then by weld parts identical two structures together, the cover plate of burn-oning on the two sides of ladder track assembly has just formed whole high-frequency circuit.
According to connecting the difference of coupling channel position, ladder track structure slow wave line can be divided into three kinds: have two trapezium structures that connect coupling channels, have the trapezium structure of staggered coupling channel and have the trapezium structure of two channels interleaveds.Wherein two trapezium structures that connect coupling channel have maximum power, and the wrong ladder track of double cross has the widest working band, and the performance of the wrong ladder track of single cross is comparatively balanced.
The rectangular metal plate of ladder track structure slow wave line and the contact area of rectangular waveguide are large, and heat-sinking capability is very strong, and therefore the power capacity of ladder track structure slow wave line is large, has the ability to bear the operating state of high-output power, and this is its first advantage.When electromagnetic wave in ladder track structure slow wave line when unit of transfer's length the change amount (phase shift) of phase place increase, when frequency reduces (negative dispersion state) on the contrary, the operating voltage of travelling wave tube is low; And the coupling slot size of change ladder track structure slow wave line can change the variation tendency of electromagnetic phase shift with frequency, therefore, ladder track structure slow wave line has advantages of that operating voltage is low, and this is its 3rd advantage.
Although ladder track structure slow wave line has above-mentioned advantage, single chamber gain of ladder track structure slow wave line is lower, and therefore ability magnify power and gain are smaller, and the length needing in the time being applied to travelling wave tube is longer.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, a kind of ladder track structure slow wave line is provided, under comparable size, improve the working band of ladder track structure slow wave line, and further improve its coupling impedance, thereby make travelling wave tube there is higher gain and efficiency.

The rectangular metal plate that is added with rectangular metal ridge is carried in rectangular waveguide, and is staggered by the fixed cycle, has formed ridge and has loaded ladder track structure slow wave line;
Wherein, described interlocking is alternately positioned at the upper and lower inwall of rectangular waveguide for the rectangular channel of the rectangular metal plate that is added with rectangular metal ridge, the width edge length of described rectangular metal ridge is less than width of rectangular and is greater than 1/2nd width of rectangular, and the narrow edge lengths of rectangular metal ridge equals rectangular metal plate height and deducts rectangular channel height.
