An extended interaction oscillator based on a complex resonatorstructure

We report experimental investigation of a novel scheme for efficient interaction between a linear electron beam and an electromagnetic wave in a complex extended interaction structure. The structure of interest consists of a high R/Q, five-gap, coupled-cavity resonator that incorporates a coaxial section of a quarter plasma wavelength placed between the first and second cavities. In the coaxial section, beam and wave propagate in separate channels. The first cavity, strongly coupled to the other cavities through the wave channel of the coaxial section, serves as a buncher cavity. An inner channel running through the center conductor of the coaxial section provides a cutoff drift space for ballistic bunching of electrons, an effect that is shown to significantly enhance the interaction efficiency. Oscillation power of 2.2 kW at 16.6 GHz was demonstrated with an interaction efficiency of 30%. The total efficiency was further increased to 41% by incorporation of a two-stage depressed collector     

Different optical properties in different periodic slot cavity geometrical morphologies

In this paper,optical properties of two-dimensional periodic annular slot cavity arrays in hexagonal close-packing on a silica substrate are theoretically characterized by finite difference time domain(FDTD) simulation method.By simulating reflectance spectra,electric field distribution,and charge distribution,we confirm that multiple cylindrical surface plasmon resonances can be excited in annular inclined slot cavities by linearly polarized light,in which the four reflectance dips are attributed to Fabry–Perot cavity resonances in the coaxial cavity.A coaxial waveguide mode TE11 will exist in these annular cavities,and the wavelengths of these reflectance dips are effectively tailored by changing the geometrical pattern of slot cavity and the dielectric materials filled in the cavities.These resonant wavelengths are localized in annular cavities with large electric field enhancement and dissipate gradually due to metal loss.The formation of an absorption peak can be explained from the aspect of phase matching conditions.We observed that the proposed structure can be tuned over the broad spectral range of 600–4000 nm by changing the outer and inner radii of the annular gaps,gap surface topography.Meanwhile,different lengths of the cavity may cause the shift of resonance dips.Also,we study the field enhancement at different vertical locations of the slit.In addition,dielectric materials filling in the annular gaps will result in a shift of the resonance wavelengths,which make the annular cavities good candidates for refractive index sensors.The refractive index sensitivity of annular cavities can also be tuned by the geometry size and the media around the cavity.Annular cavities with novel applications can be implied as surface enhanced Raman spectra substrates,refractive index sensors,nano-lasers,and optical trappers.     

Mode selective properties of coaxial gyrotron resonators

In this paper, the mode-selective properties of coaxial gyrotron resonators are discussed for different cavity configurations. Expressions are derived for the ohmic loading of a coaxial conductor with longitudinal corrugations where the RF field inside the corrugations is fully taken into account, and for the diffractive quality factor in coaxial cavities with tapered inner conductor relative to that of an empty cylindrical cavity. The competing action of a kind of “surface mode” that appears in corrugated structures is investigated by considering its diffractive and ohmic quality factors. Additional mode competition problems that can arise in coaxial cavities with corrugated inner conductor due to second cyclotron harmonic interaction are investigated and solutions to the problem are proposed

Spectral Domain Analysis of Coaxial Cavities

Coaxial cavities are used in high power gyrotrons as the beam-wave interaction structure. Much research has been devoted to their mode selective properties. A coaxial cavity lacks a sharp boundary at its open end, so it has some physical features that can only be observed using a spectral model, such as frequency-dependent field profiles and mode overlapping effects. These properties are important since cold tests are usually conducted in the frequency domain. This study applies the incident/reflected wave boundary condition to the wave equation of a weakly irregular coaxial waveguide. The resistivity of the wall is considered in the analysis. Calculations reveal that the fixed-position spectrum yields an uncertain resonant frequency and quality factor. Although the maximum-field spectrum can uniquely determine the properties of the coaxial cavity, the resonant frequency obtained using the maximum-field spectral model is inconsistent with that obtained using the temporal model. The field-energy spectrum explains the low Q nature of the coaxial cavity. Moreover, resonant frequencies evaluated using the field-energy spectrum agree precisely with those evaluated using the temporal model.

Successful uses of the two-potential connection scheme for the frequency step tuning and output power modulation in a coaxial gyrotron has been also demonstrated.

Origin of the super-enhanced light transmission through a 2-D metallic annular aperture array: a study of photonic bands

Recently a new structure showing a super-enhanced transmission [Optics Commun. 209, 17–22 (2002); Phys. Rev. B, 67, 155314, (2003)] has been proposed. The origin of this phenomenon was not clearly explained. In this paper, by using a numerical Order-N FDTD spectral method, we study the eigenmodes, the band structure and the dispersion curves of a photonic 2-D crystal made with coaxial circular cavities and made from a real metal. We show that the super-enhanced transmission of the finite structure is due to a cavity resonance of a single guided mode. An extensive characterization of this mode is presented, in terms of the spatial mode structure and effective index dispersion curve. PACS 42.70.Qs; 42.79.Ag; 42.25.Bs; 78.40.Kc     

Design of a TE42,7 coaxial cavity for a 1 MW, 280 GHz gyrotron

To provide the required mode selectivity for a 1 MW, 280 GHz gyrotron, a coaxial resonator operating in the high order TE_42,7 mode is considered. Mode discrimination is achieved both by exploring selective ohmic effects and examining the electrodynamic properties of the coaxial cylindrical waveguide. Analytic results indicate the effectiveness of a coaxial insert with a low electrical conductivity in rarefying the mode density of overmoded, megawatt hollow cavities.     

Results from an X-band coaxial extended length cavity

Experiments and simulations demonstrate high-power microwave generation at 9 GHz in a coaxial geometry. The 9 cm diameter annular electron beam is propagated between inner and outer drift tube conductors, a configuration which increases the beam current and reduces the structure fields from existing high-power sources, Since the TEM mode of the coaxial guide reduces the quality factor of small-gap cavities, especially at high frequency, the interaction is provided by an extended length cavity loaded with dielectric. A single 16 cm cavity generates 200 MW of power from the 400 keV, 7 kA electron beam. Although the cavity can oscillate at a number of resonances, a single mode is selected with 10-30 kW of input power from a magnetron. A coupler samples 25 MW of the power from the interaction region, precisely measured using a single-shot calorimeter. Simulations indicate that the efficiency of the device is limited to 7% by saturation effects, and can be improved by reducing the length of the cavity

Use of a Twin-Port Power Divider and Attenuator in the Operation of Electrodeless Discharge Lamps for Multi-Element Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry

The range of the two techniques of multi-element atomic fluorescence spectrometry may be extended by the use of a twinport power divider to allow two multi-element electrodeless discharge lamps to be operated from a single microwave generator. Various combinations of 1/4-wave, 3/4-wave resonant cavities and an A-antenna in conjunction with a coaxial attenuator allow lamps of differing excitation requirements to be operated simultaneously.     

Nonperturbative solutions to cylindrical resonant cavities with dissipative medium and imperfectly conducting walls

Cylindrical waveguides without end surfaces can serve as two-dimensional resonant cavities. In such cavities the electromagnetic oscillations corresponding to an eigenfrequency can always be taken as TM or TE modes even when the walls have a finite conductivity and the medium is absorptive. This paper obtains analytic solutions to the field equations when the cylinder has a circular cross section. Some nonperturbative conclusions are drawn from the eigenvalue equation. Approximate analytic results for the resonant frequencies are obtained when the absorption of the medium is small and the walls are good conductors. Stability of the eigen modes is discussed. Similar results for the coaxial line are presented.
