Parametric Simulation and Optimization of Cold-test Properties for a 220 GHz Broadband Folded Waveguide Traveling-wave Tube

Characterized with full-metal structure, high output power and broad bandwidth, microfabricated folded waveguide is considered as a robust slow-wave structure for millimeter wave traveling-wave tubes. In this paper, cold-test (without considering the real electron beam) properties were studied and optimized by 3D simulation on slow-wave structure, for designing a 220 GHz folded waveguide traveling-wave tube. The parametric analysis on cold-test properties, i.e., phase velocity, beam-wave interaction impedance and cold circuit attenuation, were conducted in half-period circuit with high frequency structure simulator, assisted by analytical model and equivalent circuit model. Through detailed parametric analyses, interference between specified structural parameters is found on determining beam-wave interaction impedance. A discretized matrix optimization for interaction impedance was effectively carried out to overcome the interference. A range of structural parameters with optimized interaction impedance distributions were obtained. Based on the optimized results, a broadband folded waveguide with cold pass-band of about 80 GHz, flat phase velocity dispersion and fairly high interaction impedance was designed for a 220 GHz central frequency traveling-wave tube. A three-dB bandwidth of 20.5 GHz and a maximum gain of 21.2 dB were predicted by small signal analysis for a 28 mm-long lossy circuit.

Investigation of the Dielectric-Loaded Folded Waveguide Traveling-Wave Tube Amplifier

The cold-test characteristics of the dielectric-loaded folded waveguide traveling-wave tube (FWTWT) amplifier are investigated theoretically and the Pierce small-signal theory is employed to confirm the results. For the purpose of analysis, the discussions are separated into symmetric case and unsymmetrical case according to the loading form of the dielectrics. The calculation results indicate that both of them, especially the unsymmetrical form, can significantly reduce the phase velocity and flatten the dispersion curve. However, loading dielectric in an unsymmetrical form will lead to a large decrease in the on-axis interaction impedance, thus it is recommended to use the symmetrical form. It is further found that when the thickness of the dielectric is small, i.e. h ₁/a ≤ 0.1, the interaction impedance is slightly affected by the variations on dielectric constant. The Pierce linear theory for a Q-band dielectric-loaded FWTWT amplifier shows that the bandwidth is increased from 15.08% to 27.03% and the operating voltage is decreased from 20.5 kv to 18.6 kv.     

Theoretical and experimental research on Er-doped and Yb-Er co-doped Al2O3 waveguide amplifiers

The rate equations of Er-doped and Yb-Er codoped systems pumped at 0.98 μm are presented, with consideration for the upconversion mechanisms such as cooperative upconversion, cross relaxation, and excited state absorption. A multi-theoretical model is founded to analyze the gain characteristics of Er-doped and Yb-Er co-doped Al2O3 waveguide amplifiers by using rate equations, a two-dimension waveguide finite element model and propagation equations with forward and backward amplified spontaneous emission. The dependence of the gain on amplifier length, pump power and doping concentration is obtained. The optimum design curve is given for designing waveguide amplifiers. The new theory is used to analyze the gain performance of a practical Yb-Er co-doped Al2O3 waveguide amplifier, and the analyzed results are in accordance with the experimental data.     

Theoretical Study for Folded Waveguide Traveling Wave Tube

A wideband folded waveguide traveling-wave tube (TWT) amplifier has advantages of simpler coupling structures and robust structure over the conventional helix TWT. The phase velocity of waves in folded waveguide is slowed down to the velocity of electron beam. Slow-wave interaction with the electron beam in folded waveguide is studied in a linear fashion. For a cold beam, the linear theory predicts a gain of 2 dB/cm and a bandwidth of 37% at the center frequency of 14 GHz. A closed algebraic dispersion relation for the frequency and the axial phase shift per period is obtained using an equivalent circuit model. Numerical solution calculated from the dispersion relation and three-dimensional electromagnetic code, HFSS simulations predict a mode coalescing in the folded waveguide. And a theoretical phase velocity prediction of the electromagnetic wave in this circuit is verified by HFSS simulations.     

Analytical Exploration of Folded Waveguide Circuit Design for High-power Traveling-wave Tube Amplifier

In this paper, we analyze the design of the folded waveguide slow-wave circuit for traveling-wave tube (TWT) amplifiers. On the basis of physical analyses, an improved physical-based design method that is especially suitable for high-power devices is developed. The proposed method overcomes the difficulties resulting from increased operating voltages and requirements for higher interaction impedance in high-power designs. It enables balancing of dispersion and interaction impedance, which is a flexible approach in addressing operational problems. Furthermore, the essential relationship between the proposed and the existing methods are revealed. A Ka-band folded waveguide TWT amplifier is designed and examined, thereby confirming that the new design method is effective and reliable.
