Exact treatment of the dispersion and beam interaction impedance of a thin tape helix surrounded by a radially stratified dielectric

TL;DR: In this paper, an exact dispersion relation is obtained for electromagnetic waves propagating on a thin metallic tape helix of arbitrary width, supported by a radially stratified dielectric layer and enclosed by a metallic shell.
Journal ArticleDOI

Millimeter wave traveling wave tubes for the 21st Century

TL;DR: In this paper, traveling wave tubes are rapidly evolving to provide unprecedented power level in comparison to solid state devices in the millimeter wave region of the spectrum (80-300 GHz) thus enabling a wide range of applications.

Relativistic backward wave oscillator with a gaussian radiation pattern and related technologies

TL;DR: In this paper, a backward wave oscillator was used to produce an HPM Gaussian wave beam with negative group velocity where the wave is traveling in the direction opposite to the electron beam.
Journal ArticleDOI

The new wave-ring helical (WRH) slow-wave structure for traveling wave tube amplifiers

TL;DR: In this paper, the wave-ring helix was introduced to enhance the power of the traveling wave tubes and the results showed that in the special frequency range the output power and gain are greater than conventional helix.
