Proceedings ArticleDOI
Multipactor Suppression in S-band Coaxial Transmission Lines
TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed suppressing multipactor discharge in radiofrequency vacuum electronic (RFV electronic) systems, which can lead to localized heating and catastrophic failure of the device.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Dual Recirculating Planar Crossed-Field Amplifier Design
C. Swenson,R. A. Revolinsky,E. Guerin,Nicholas M. Jordan,L. I. Welch,Ryan D. McBride,Y.Y. Lau,Ronald M. Gilgenbach +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , a dual recirculating planar crossed-field amplifier (RPCFA) was designed at the University of Michigan, which has two slow-wave structures in a single anode housing.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characterization of material performance of carbon-based field emitters
Vasilios Vlahos,Ryan Miller,Dane Morgan,John H. Booske,S. Limbach,J. Jacobs,S. Sengele,Y.Y. Lau +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the work function of materials utilized in field emission cathodes was investigated using ab-initio quantum mechanical modeling with the Vienna ab-inio simulation package (VASP), which enables the detailed and selfconsistent treatment of a system based on quantum mechanical principles, yielding extremely accurate information pertaining to its electronic properties.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Noise reduction and magnetic priming for kW magnetrons by azimuthally varying axial magnetic fields
V.B. Neculaes,Ronald M. Gilgenbach,Y.Y. Lau,M.C. Jones,W.M. White,Nicholas M. Jordan,P. Pengvanich,Y. Hidaka,H.L. Bosman +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the axial magnetic field perturbation was measured at the outside of the cavity structure of a double-strapped magnetron and the magnitude of the magnetic field was up to 50%.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Advances in modeling microwave window breakdown
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the transition of dielectric window breakdown from a vacuum multipactor discharge to a collisional microwave discharge in a number of noble gases, using a particle-in-cell (PIC) model with Monte Carlo collisions.
