Abstract: A metamaterial high-power microwave source relates to the fields of vacuum electronic technology, particle physics, and accelerators, including: a cathode, a metamaterial slow-wave structure (SWS), a waveguide and coaxial line coupler located at one end of the metamaterial SWS and a collector component located at the other end of the metamaterial SWS. The metamaterial SWS provided by the present invention is greatly smaller than a rectangular waveguide having the same frequency, so as to realize a miniaturization of devices and facilitate integration with semiconductor devices. The waveguide and coaxial line coupler has a good transmission characteristic and a low reflection in a relatively wide frequency band, which guarantees a high-efficient coupling output of a signal. Moreover, the metamaterial high-power microwave source has a high-power output and a pulsed output power reaching a megawatt level.

Abstract: A miniaturized all-metal slow-wave structure includes: a circular metal waveguide; and metal electric resonance units provided in the circular metal waveguide; wherein the metal electric resonance unit provided in the circular metal waveguide includes a ring-shaped electric resonance metal plate with an electron beam tunnel provided on a center thereof, and a ring plate body of the ring-shaped electric resonance metal plate has two auricle-shaped through-holes symmetrically aside an axial-section; a main body of the auricle-shaped through-hole is a ring-shaped hole, two column holes extending towards a center of a circle are provided at two ends of the ring-shaped hole; the ring-shaped electric resonance metal plates are perpendicular to an axis and are provided inside the circular metal waveguide with equal intervals therebetween, external surfaces of the ring-shaped electric resonance metal plates are mounted on an internal surface of the circular metal waveguide.
