Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the art of ultra-high-frequency apparatus, including electron discharge tubes of the velocity modulation type, and utilizing cavity resonators operating at frequencies of the order of 1,000 to- 30,000 megacycles per second. More particularly, the invention relates to arrangements for coupling said tubes to other high-frequency apparatus and for varying the operating frequency of the tubes.
  • Cavity resonators as employed in high-frequency electron discharge tubes or other highfrequency apparatus, have been made in a variety of symmetrical shapes and with various types of coupling devices for introducing highfrequency energy into or extracting high-frequency energy from the resonators.
  • the operating frequencies of such resonators have been variably controlled by diverse types of tuners, of which one known form comprises a conductive rod member mounted to be adjustably positionable within the resonator so as to alter the value of frequency-controlling parameters thereof and to change the frequency of operation of the tube accordingly.
  • tuners and couplings heretofore employed have been selected in the light of mutually independent and, generally, incompatible design and operational requirements.
  • conductive rod tuners have been introduced into regions of intense electricfield or intense magnetic-field components of an excited cavity resonator, thereby causing alteration of the equivalent capacitance or the equivalent inductance of the resonator.
  • the former method is generally referred to as capacitive tuning of the tube while the latter is known as inductive tuning.
  • a principal objecttherefore, of the present invention is to provide generally improved tunable cavity resonator apparatus wherein the above-described difficulties are avoided.
  • Another object is to provide a high-frequency electron discharge tube of the velocity-modulation type having an improved cavity resonator embodying novel arrangements of tuning and coupling means mutually cooperable to produce a substantially increased range of tuning for the tube.
  • broad-band tuning is accomplishedin an ultrahigh-frequency electron discharge tube device by means of a novel type of cavity resonator having an axially slotted wall portion and wherein a waveguide coupling arrangement and a conductive tuning member are provided in substantially diametrally opposed portions of the resonator.
  • Increased range of tuning has been found to result from the fact that the asymmetry of the resonator structure produced by this novel arrangement enables the positioning of the tuning member substantially exclusively in the magnetic-field portionof the resonator field thereby minimizing: undesired capacitance effects.
  • an improved high-frequency apparatus having incre'a's'edtuning range provided by an asymmetrical resonator arrangement including an axially slotted cavity resonator having a wave guide coupling at the slotted portion of the resonator andaconductive tuning member in a .diametrally opposed portion of the resonator.

  • a feature of the present invention lies in the provision of an ultra-high-frequency apparatus comprising a cylindrical-cavity resonator having an axially slotted wall portion, a wave guide section coupled to said resonator at the slotted portion thereof, and a tuning rod adjustably positionable within the resonator in a region diametrally opposed from the slotted wall portion.
  • Another feature of the present invention is the provision of a novel reflex oscillator of the klystron type having a waveguide coupling arrangement and a conductive: rod tuner cooperable with said coupling arrangement to produce an increased range of tunability for said oscillator.
  • the invention in another of its aspects relates to novel features of the instrumentalities described herein for achieving the principal objects of the invention and to novel principles employed in those instrumentalities, whether or not these features and principles are used for the said principal objects or in the said field.
