Patent number: 5814939Abstract: A mechanically tunable magnetron injection gun (MIG) provides an annular, relativistic beam of electrons for injection into an axially aligned magnetic field of a gyrotron-class device. The electron emitter encircles a center electrode. Turning a knob adjusts the center electrode's axial position relative to the rest of the cathode. The adjustable center electrode provides an effective means for local field adjustment. The center electrode is located in a particularly sensitive electric field region and adjusts the electric field so as to tune the electron beam from the inside out. Adjusting the center electrode position while the device is in operation is a means for providing mechanical tunability (with respect to beam quality and transverse-to-axial velocity ratio) for the MIG.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 1996Date of Patent: September 29, 1998Inventors: Kwo R. Chu, Larry R. Barnett, Chaoen Wang, Yih S. Yeh, Tze T. Yang, Han Y. Chen, Shih H. Chen, Yi C. Tsai, Trine Y. Dawn
