Outline of Final Research Achievements

In gyrotrons, formation of a laminar flow is essential to realizing a high-quality electron beam with a small velocity-spread. The electron-optical system was investigated to adjust each electron trajectory in magnetron injection guns (MIGs). it is found that increase in the laminarity is possible with a properly arranged potential profile between the cathode and anode. In the well-laminated beam, the axial pitch of each gyro-motion is modified such that all trajectories have almost the same gyration phase in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field line.
The above considerations result in the optimum MIG designs for a 300 GHz pulsed tube and a step-frequency-tunable (162 - 265 GHz) tube. The 300 GHz tube showed a maximum power output of 246 kW with an efficiency of 27%, which satisfies the demand on CTS diagnostic in LHD. The step-frequency tunable tube was successfully operated at designed 10 different frequencies with powers of the order of 1 kW.
