Abstract:
A capacitor includes a conductive tube, covered by insulating material and a layer of conductive material located at the central part of the tube. The geometry presents a low inherent inductance and a continuous, distributed conductance. The capacitor may be used as a bypass capacitor in an IOT amplifier to reduce stray and leakage high frequency radiation, in one amplifier being located within the inner wall of an annular input cavity.
Abstract:
An electron beam tube (17) having a longitudinal axis comprises a first component, such as a ceramic wall (5) and a second component such as a drift tube assembly having a mounting plate (3). The tube further comprises means, such as member (18), arranged to allow relative sliding movement of the first component relative to the second component in a radial direction. The invention helps to alleviate mechanical stresses caused by differential thermal expansion of the components.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cathode ray tube having an input resonator cavity which includes a first metal wall (2) and, spaced apart therefrom, a second metal wall (3) each conveying a low electric potential and constituting coupling areas (6, 7) at axially spaced locations, in which areas metal elements (10, 12) conveying a high electric potential are located opposite surface sections (8, 9 and 14, 15) which are electrically connected to the metal walls (2, 3) via insulating dielectrics (11, 13), the coupling areas (6, 7) being separated by a spacing dielectric. A high-voltage stable arrangement which is resistant to temperature fluctuations is obtained in that the spacing dielectric consists of a different material than the insulating dielectrics (6, 7) and has a lower value of the product of loss factor and dielectric constant (tg.delta..times..epsilon.) at a high frequency.

Abstract:
An inductive output tube (IOT) operates in a frequency range above 1000 MHz. An output window may be provided to separate a vacuum portion of the IOT from an atmospheric pressure portion of the IOT, the output window being surrounded by a cooling air manifold, the manifold including an air input port and a plurality of apertures permitting cooling air to move from the port, through the manifold and into the atmospheric pressure portion of the IOT. The output cavity may include a liquid coolant input port; a lower circular coolant channel coupled to receive liquid coolant from the liquid coolant input port; a vertical coolant channel coupled to receive liquid coolant from the lower circular coolant channel; an upper circular coolant channel coupled to receive liquid coolant from the vertical coolant channel; and a liquid coolant exhaust port coupled to receive liquid coolant from the upper circular coolant channel.

The invention relates to linear beam amplification devices having an electron emitting cathode and an RF modulated grid closely spaced therefrom, and more particularly, to a novel support structure for the grid that accommodates thermal expansion while maintaining an optimum grid-to-cathode spacing.
Abstract:
An electron beam tube includes an electron gun included within a vacuum envelope defined partly by a ceramic cylinder. The ceramic cylinder includes straight sided portions and with an intervening conical section between them. The straight sided portions and form part of two r.f. chokes, being metallized on their inner and outer surfaces and forming a connection with a cavity forming part.
Abstract:
A grid for use in a linear electron beam tube such as an IOT or TWT includes a grid section and a focus electrode between which is included an accommodation portion. The grid is mounted in the tube by a mounting flange around its outer periphery. During use, the grid section becomes hot and consequently expands but the mounting flange remains relatively cool being connected to a relatively massive structure. Thin flexible strips of the accommodation section permit movement between the mounting flange and the grid section due to differential thermal expansion, thus minimising distortion to the grid section which might otherwise occur if it were connected directly to the mounting flange and hence fixed in its outer diameter length. In other embodiments, the focus electrode is omitted.
Abstract:
An electron beam tube (1) having an input resonator cavity (2) through which a high-frequency control voltage is applied between cathode (15) and grid (17) of the tube (1), while an annular electrode (8) connected in an electrically conducting manner to the grid (17) of the tube is arranged opposite a metal wall (9) of the input resonator cavity (2) and is connected to a DC power supply lead (11). Interference oscillations are suppressed in that a high-frequency damping material (14) is associated with the DC power supply lead (11) on a part of the length located proximate to the annular electrode.
Abstract:
In a multistage collector used in a linear beam tube such as an IOT or klystron, electrode stages are separated by ceramic rings having metallised surfaces to provide distributed bypass capacitors. This eliminates or reduces leakage or any radio frequency energy from the interior of the collector to the outside.
