This invention relates to a magnetron oscillator Vwhich is adapted to generate oscillations of hyper frequency and having Wave lengths of the order of a few centimeters or less. Heretoiore such oscillators have required a relatively complex anode configuration which was difficult to construct accurately and which tended to produce spurious oscillations, thus decreasing the eiliciency of the oscillator.
An object of this invention is to devise a magnetron having an anode of simple construction wherein the frequency of oscillationfis xed by a simple and easily constructed configuration.
Another object is to provide a magnetron of the above type in which the oscillations are proguide;

v A The magnetron illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2` comprises a cylindrical anode I of suitable conducting material, such as copper, and a centrally located lamentary cathode 2 of the thermionic type. 'Ihe anode and cathode are contained within a highly evacuated glass envelope 3 containing a reentrant stem V4. The anode I is supported by a conducting standard 5 sealedin the stem 4 and provided with a lead-in conductor E which is sealed through said stem and provides an external electrical connection for the anode.
.The cathode 2 is supported Iby a pair of con- 40mm. (o1. 25o-27.5)
ducting standards l, likewise sealed in the stem Il and each provided with a lead-in conductor 8 sealed through said stem in order to provide external electrical connections to the cathode. The cathode 2 may be provided with heating current through leads 8 so as to raise it to a temperature of thermionie emission. Light metal shields 9 may be provided at opposite ends of the electrode structure so as to prevent electrons from being projected throughA the lends of the anode I toward the glass walls of the envelope 3. These shields may be conveniently supported from the cathode standards 1. Magnet poles I0 and I I are provided in order to create a magnetic eld extending axially along the anode cylinder l and substantially parallel with the lamentary cathode 2. The anode I is provided with anv elongated slot I2 cut through the wall of said anode in a direction substantially parallel with the axis of the anode cylinder. The slot I2 is narrow as compared with its length. Also its length is selected so as to be substantially onehalf the Wave length of the oscillations which the magnetron is adapted to generate.
When in the arrangement as described above the cathode is heated to temperature of thermionic emission, a suitable Voltage is impressed between the cathode and the anode, and the magnetic field is of the proper value, oscillations will be generated in the anode cylinder I around the slot I2. These oscillations will have a wave length which is substantially twice the length of the slot I2.
I believe that the operation of the device is substantially as follows. The magnetic iield set up about the cathode 2 causes the electrons, which are emitted from said cathode and accelerated by the anode voltage, to travel in orbital paths around the cathode 2. Thus in the vicinity of the slot l-2 electrons tend to travel past said slot in a direction normal to its length and induce varying electric charges on opposite sides of said slot. This tends to set up oscillations around the slot at a frequency at which the slot is resonant. The voltages set up across the slot react on the electrons passing the slot and tend to bunch these electrons in such a way that pulses of electrons periodically pass theV slot with such periodicity and phase as to reinforce the abovementioned oscillations. As a result strong oscillations are generated. which tend to radiate hlyper frequency energy from the vicinity of said s ot. I
The energy radiated from the slot I2 may be guided in a desired manner by inserting that portion of the anode containing said slot into a wave guide I3. For example, the wave guide I3 may be provided with an opening M in one side thereof, and the upper end of the envelope 3 may loe inserted through said opening I4 so that the slot I2 lies transverse to the wave guide I3. Under these conditions I believe that the energy com ing' from ithe slot. i 2 tends to .exciterthe zwave guide I-3in also-cal1edtransverse magnetic mode in which the magnetic vectors are transverse to the wave guide and the electric Vectors within the Wave guide are substantially paralleLtothedirection in which energy is propagatedthrough the Wave guide.

I have found that devices constructed in accordance with the foregoing principles can be made accurately with a minimum of diiliculty. Further, such devices tend to oscillate at the desired output frequency and are remarkably free from tendencies to generate spurious oscillations which might tend to decrease the efciency thereof.
Of course it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to the particular details as described above as many equivalents will suggest themselves to those skilled in the art.
