Abstract (en)

[origin: US4439746A] This oscillator comprises a periodic structure line constituted by a succession of vanes having an orifice in which propagates a linear electron beam. This line is placed over a cavity constituted by a straight parallelepiped which has a rectangular base, whose dimensions are determined in such a way that it behaves like a waveguide at the cut-off frequency, along the longitudinal axis of the line and on a transverse magnetic or TMmn mode with m=1, 3, 5 etc. and n=1, 2, 3, 4 etc. Coupling slots are provided on the cavity between two successive vanes and in a gap between pairs of vanes. The anode voltage of the beam and the distance between two successive vanes are selected in such a way that the cavity resonates at the cut-off frequency and on the pi mode. Applications include measuring oscillators and heterodyne radar transmitters and receivers.
