Pishko O. Multi-step slow-wave structures: Application to millimeter and submillimeter wave clynotrons. OKD3

Theoretical and experimental methods for analizing of the formation of fields in open multy-step slow-wave structures have been proposed with the aim applying these results to the development of clynotrons with a quasi optical distributed energy output. Methods of the mathematical phisics, numerical methods, radio phisical methods of experiments, and microwave equipment have been used. The problem of the excitetion of such structures by a waveguide and a plain wave has been solved, and calculations of electrodynamics characteristics have been made along with the simulation of the slow-wave structure. Examples of clynotrons for mm and submm wave bands have been produced. The results can be applied to antenna technique and electronics. OKD4
