Development of Electrostatically Focused Supported-Drift-Tube Klystron Oscillators

摘要

The report describes the design of 10-milliwatt and one-watt X-band, supported-drift-tube klystron oscillators. Technological construction problems and their solutions are also discussed. A number of beam testers were constructed to investigate beam transmission problems. Because of the poor beam transmission, no operable klystrons were built. The beam transmission problem will have to be solved before successful tubes can be fabricated. (Author)
