dc.description.abstract | A ring reflector was experimentally investigated using an axial virtual cathode oscillator (vircator). The ring reflector was installed behind the mesh anode of the axial vircator to enhance the microwave power output by forming a resonant cavity and increasing the electron beam to microwave energy conversion efficiency. The optimum position of the ring reflector is analyzed through simulations and experiments by varying the anode to reflector distance from 6 mm to 24 mm in 3 mm steps. PIC simulations show that the ring reflector enhances the microwave power of the axial vircator up to 220%. Experiments show that the microwave power from the axial vircator without the ring reflector is 11.22 MW. The maximum average peak microwave power of the axial vircator with the ring reflector is 25.82 MW when the anode to ring reflector distance is 18 mm. From the simulations and experiments, it can be seen that the ring reflector yields decaying enhancement that is inversely proportional to the anode to ring reflector distance and there is no noticeable microwave enhancement after 24 mm. The frequency range attained from the simulations and experiments is 5.8 to 6.7 GHz and 5.16 to 5.8 GHz, respectively. The difference between the simulation and experimental results is due to the error in the anode to cathode gap distance. Although the frequency is slightly changed, the ring reflector seems to have no influence on the frequency of the generated microwave. | - |
