摘要
A helically corrugated waveguide was used for a gyrotron backward wave oscillator (gyro-BWO) experiment. With a thermionic electron beam of 90-210kV in energy, 2-3A in current and pitch alpha of up to 1.6 the oscillator achieved a maximum power of 70kW, a frequency-tuning band of 8.0-9.5GHz(17% relative tuning range) with an maximum electronic efficiency of 16%.
