ECH mirror interface tank for 110 GHz, 1 MW gyrotron

摘要

A 1 MW, 110 GHz gyrotron is to be installed at General Optical Atomics in 1995. A Mirror Optics Unit (MOU) has been Unit designed and built to connect to the existing 110 GHz transmission line system. The unit reduces and directs a 145 mm diameter beam from the gyrotron to a 19 mm diameter beam which is then injected into a 31.8 mm diameter corrugated waveguide of the transmission line system. The unit operates under vacuum and is able to absorb beam spray from the gyrotron. The tank also contains various diagnostics equipment to protect the gyrotron and to determine the amount of energy loss in the tank, and at the window of the gyrotron output. This paper discusses further the design parameters, assembly and installation of the unit in the transmission line system.
