Abstract :
Spatial-harmonic magnetrons with cold secondary-emission cathode are efficient high-power millimeter-wavelength oscillators. Advances in the design, realizations, and investigation of such magnetrons are reviewed. Potentials for further increasing of the lifetime of the spatial -harmonic magnetrons are considered in more details.
