Large-orbit Subterahertz and Terahertz gyrotrons

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We review briefly the main ideas and achievements in the field of physics related to shortwavelength large-orbit gyrotrons, in which the coupling of electrons with the working mode and the discrimination of parasitic modes in the case of resonance at the high cyclotron harmonic are more efficient compared with conventional gyrotrons. The results of studying a new large-orbit gyrotron with moderate electron energies of 50–80 keV and comparatively low magnetic fields of 10.5–14 T are presented. In this gyrotron, high-power single-mode generation was obtained at the second and third cyclotron harmonics in the frequency range 0.55–1.00 THz. The prospects of development and application of short-wavelength large-orbit gyrotrons are discussed.
