Traveling Wave Tube Working

Traveling Wave Tube Working(TWT): Like the multicavity klystron, the Traveling Wave Tube Working is a linear-beam tube used as a microwave amplifier. Unlike the klystron, however, it is a device…

Reflex Klystron Oscillator

Reflex Klystron Oscillator: It is possible to produce oscillations in a klystron device which has only one cavity, through which electrons pass twice. This is the Reflex Klystron Oscillator, which…

Multicavity Klystron

Multicavity Klystron: The design of the multicavity klystron, together with all the remaining tubes described here, relies on the fact that transit time will sooner or later terminate the usefulness…

Planar Triode Construction

Planar Triode Construction: Planar Triode Construction - A short transit time is essential if grid loss and noise are to be minimized, as is the reduction of internal capacitances and…

Resonators and Waveguides Articles

Resonators and Waveguides Articles: Rectangular Waveguides: As we know already that the term skin effect indicated that the majority of the current flow (at very high frequencies) will occur mostly…

Waveguide Mixers and Detectors

Waveguide Mixers and Detectors: As we know that ordinary transistor and tube RF amplifiers eventually fail at microwave frequencies, because of greatly increased noise, compared with their low-frequency performance. Unless…

Waveguide Isolator and Circulators

Waveguide Isolator and Circulators: It often happens at microwave frequencies that coupling must be strictly a one-way affair. This applies for most microwave generators, whose output amplitude and frequency could…

Cavity Resonators

Cavity Resonators: A cavity resonators is a piece of waveguide closed off at both ends with metallic planes. Where propagation in the longitudinal direction took place in the waveguide, standing…
