A novel cavity scheme of a gyrotron is proposed and investigated. As it provides low Ohmic losses and high mode selectivity, it can be especially prospective for realization in gyrotrons operating in the THz frequency range. Numerical simulations show that it allows three-fold increase in the efficiency of the low-relativistic 500 GHz fourth-harmonic gyrotron as compared to conventional two-section scheme with modes transformation.
