Definitions
- This invention relates to velocity modulation electron discharge devices. which an electron beam is caused to pass through a hollow resonator where the beam becomes velocity modulated, the velocity modulated beam being then allowed to become charge density modulated and being then passed through a further hollow resonator which extracts energy from the charge density modulated beam.
- the object of the present invention to provide an improved velocity modulation electron discharge device with a view to overcoming or reducing this difficulty.
- a traveling wave electron discharge device of the velocity modulation type comprising a coiled length of hollow waveguide and means for projecting a beam of electrons through said coiled waveguide the arrangement being such that a repeated or continuous interchange of energy occurs between said electrons and the field set up in the waveguide.
- a series of apertures may be provided in the walls of a coiled hollow waveguide and the electron beam may be caused to pass through said apertures along a line parallel to, but spaced from the axis about which the coil is wound, whilst in another form of the invention the electron beam may be caused to pass along said axis with the wall of the waveguide adjacent the axis being provided with a helical slot, or said wall may be omitted.
- the electrons in effect repeatedly traverse the field set up in the I waveguide so that, while the interchange of energy for one traversal may be quite small, the interchange of energy after several traversals may be of useful magnitude.
- the electrons interact continuously with a high frequency wave which travels efiectively at the same axial velocity as the electrons so that a continuous interchange of energy can take place.
- FIGURE-l is an elevation illustrating diagrammatically one form of discharge device constructed according to the invention.
- FIGURE 2 is an end elevation of the coiled waveguide shown in FIGURE 1,
- FIGURE 3 is a section taken along the line 3-3 of FIGURE 2,
- FIGURE 4 is a view similar to FIGURE 3 but illustrating another form of the invention
- FIGURE 5 is a diagrammatic illustration of the use Many such devices are known inice of the device according to the invention as a generator of. self-maintained oscillations,
- FIGURE 6 is a view similar to FIGURE 3 but illustrating another modification of the invention.
- the reference numeral 1 indicates a hollow waveguide which is coiled in a helical manner.
- the coiled waveguide is shown in FIGURE 3 as made up of two tubular conductive members 1a and 1b contacting the inner and outer peripheries of a radially-extending fiat helical conductive strip 10.
- a series of apertures 2 are provided in the adjacent conducting walls of the convolutions of the coil, in the strip 1c, these apertures being arranged in line with one another and on an axis parallel to, but spaced from the axis of the coil.
- an electron gun comprising a cathode 3 and'a cathode shield 4 whilst at the other end of the coil there is provided a collecting electrode 5.
- a more complicated type of gun may be required to give adequate focussing.
- the electrons from the cathode 3 are caused to pass through the series of apertures 2 and thus through the adjacent convolutions of the coil, the electrons being finally collected by the electrode 5.
- the space through which the electrons pass will, of course, require to be evacuated and either the whole coil may be enclosed in an evacuated envelope 8 as shown in dash lines in FIGURES 4 and 6, or alternatively, an evacuated envelope need only be provided to enclose the beam apertures and the electrodes 3, 4 and 5.
- the cathode 3 and electrode 4 and the first aperture 2 may be enclosed by an envelope 9 sealed to the wave guide at one end and similarly the last aperture 2 and the electrode 5 by an envelope 10 sealed to the other end of the wave guide 1, the guide 1 being evacuated and the terminal ends A and B of the guide suitably sealed at 11 and 12, as shown in FIG- URE 5. Any reflections which occur due to the sealed ends of the guide can be reduced over a restricted frequency range by suitable design of window at said ends.
- a wave is propagated through the waveguide from the input terminal A to the output terminal B with the electric vector of the wave extending substantially in the direction of the axis of the coil.
- the electron beam passes through the adjacent convolutions of the coil substantially in the direction of the high frequency electric vector of the wave propagated through the guide so that the electrons will receive repeated retardations or accelerations whereby the beam will become velocity modulated and eventually charge density modulated and will impart energy to the high frequency field on traversing the last few turns of the coil. It is necessary that the electrons which are most retarded, should meet a similarly phased electric vector at each time they pass from one convolution to another.
- this condition can be met by causing the wave to travel around one convolution of the coil whilst an electron crosses from the mid-point of one convolution to the mid-point of the next convolution.
- the same condition can also be met by arranging for the wave to travel around one convolution plus any integral number of guide wavelengths, whilst the electrons cross from the mid-point of one convolution to the mid-point of the next convolution. It will be understood that where mention has been made of the wave travelling around the guide it is the phase velocity of the wave which is to be considered.

- the wall of the guide adjacent said axis may be omitted.
- a high frequency electric field is set up across the gap provided by the slot 6, or across adjacent edges of the walls of the waveguide if the aforesaid inner wall is omitted, theelectron beam then interacting continuously with said field during its passage through the coil.
- the electrons it is necessary for the electrons to advance one convolution of the coil whilst the wave travel-s round one convolution.
- the devices shown in FIGURES l, 2,3 and 4 can be employed as amplifiers, a received high frequency signal or a signal from a low power generator being fed into the end A of the hollow guide and an amplified output being obtained from the end B.
- the devices shown can also be employed as mixers of a plurality of high frequency waves of different frequencies, such waves being fed into a guide'at the end A and the modulated current beam detected to afford an output of an intermediate frequency.
- the devices can also be employed to afiord a detected output from a modulated wave. Further, the devices can be employed as generators of selfmaintained oscillations in which case some'of the output from the end B would be required to be fed back to the input; end A.
- the cross-section of the Waveguide is shown as being rectangular, it will be appreciated that other cross-sections of waveguide may be employed.
- the waveguide need not be coiled to provide a circular helix since the helix may be of other shapes.
- the helix may be square although this construction may not be advantageous owing to the possibility of reflections occurring at the corners of the helix.
