摘要：

A dual-mode operation mechanism in an overmoded relativistic backward wave oscillator is presented. The electron beam interacts with the -1st space harmonic of TM01 mode synchronously in the slow wave structure. Then the backward propagating TM01 mode is converted to the forward propagating TM02 mode. As the phase velocity of the volume harmonic of TM02 mode is about twice that of the surface harmonic of TM01 mode, the TM02 mode also plays an important role in the high-power microwave generation. Particle-in-cell simulation shows that an efficiency of 48% and a significant improvement of the power capacity have been obtained. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
