    摘要: An electron deflection device responsive to an electrical input signal for producing an output signal includes a focusing array for producing a collimated electron beam input ribbon in the direction of a propagation axis, the input ribbon being elongated along an array axis perpendicular to the propagation axis, and being relatively thin along a deflection axis perpendicular to the array axis and to the propagation axis. The focusing array is preferably a linear array of gated cold cathode units with lens electrodes. The deflection device further includes first and second electrically conductive deflector faces, forming a deflection region therebetween and being disposed so that the propagation-axis passes through the deflection region. The deflection device further includes means responsive to the input signal for applying time varying potentials to the deflector faces so as to produce a modulated electric field in the deflection region for deflecting the input ribbon over the course of a temporal deflection cycle to produce a continuously modulated output ribbon. The deflection device further includes an anode section responsive to the continuously modulated output ribbon for producing an output signal.The output signal can be in the form of an electrical output signal or a chopped output ribbon suitable for input to a high power amplifier, such as a klystron, klystrode, traveling wave tube, distributed amplifier or a gigatron, or to a free electron laser.

The slow wave structure of the cathode is accurately proportioned and spaced to have a dispersion curve near to the dispersion of the slow wave structure of the anode to permit cross-coupling of the RF input from the slow wave structure of the anode to the slow wave structure of the cathode.

    摘要: The cathode and tube of this invention comprise a secondary emission semiconductor cathode in a crossed-field high power amplifier. A gallium arsenide semiconductor doped with an impurity to make it more conductive than intrinsic gallium arsenide has been found to perform better than prior art secondary emission cathodes when it is incorporated as a cathode in a high-power crossed-field amplifier tube operating at high average and peak current. With a gallium arsenide cathode, the crossed-field amplifier tube exhibits a radio frequency output pulse which has fast rise time and much reduced leading-edge jitter relative to performance of the same cross-field amplifier tube having a conventional secondary emission cathode.

    摘要: A p -i-n semiconductor diode is used as the target for an electron-bombarded semiconductor amplifier. In such amplifiers, a form of evacuated electron tube has a conventional cathode, heater, and grid. However, the tube has the semiconductor diode target in place of the more conventional anode. A high beamaccelerating potential between the cathode and the target causes a high-velocity electron beam to bombard the target, which has its outer layer thin enough to permit the electrons to pass through to the intrinsic region of the diode, where the electrons generate electron-hole pairs. The semiconductor diode target is connected in series with an output load and a source of target bias potential that draws a current of the newly-created electron-hole pairs across the output load. The grid modulates the electron beam, which, in turn controls the current across the output load.

    摘要: A crossed field microwave amplifier tube is disclosed. The amplifier employs a meander line slow wave circuit arranged for interaction with a stream of electrons to amplify signal radio frequency wave energy on the circuit to produce an amplified output signal. The meander line slow wave circuit includes a zigzag shaped conductor disposed over a ground plane member to define a meander line slow wave circuit. An insulative structure is disposed between the zig-zag conductor and the ground plane for insulatively supporting the zig-zag conductor over the ground plane. A conductive shield structure is provided which projects from the ground plane structure into the space between adjacent zig-zag portions of the zig-zag shaped conductor to decrease the capacitance between adjacent zig-zag portions of the meander line, thereby shaping the dispersion characteristic of the shielded meander line circuit to provide nearly constant phase velocity for r.f. wave energy within an ultra wide passband of the circuit. More particularly, the phase velocity within the passband of the circuit is constant to within 1 percent for 1 octave of bandwidth and constant to 1.5 percent for a 2 octave bandwidth. In a preferred embodiment, the insulative support structure is recessed into the ground plane structure to reduce the shunt capacity of the meander line to the dielectric support structure, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the circuit. In addition the conductive shield structure serves to shield the insulative support structure from sputtered cathode materials which would otherwise tend to be deposited on and to short out the insulative structure.
