研究目的
Investigating a new relativistic microwave Cherenkov generator of millimeter wavelength range with high efficiency of beam-to-microwave power conversion.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated stable microwave generation at 36.4 GHz with a peak power of 800 MW and a conversion efficiency of 45%. The combined interaction of the electron beam with TM01 and TM02 waves in the slow-wave structure was key to achieving high efficiency. The results align well with numerical simulations, indicating the potential for further optimization and application in high-power microwave devices.
