The mm-wave peniomagnetron with cold cathode

The high performance of the peniotron mechanism of the electron-wave interaction of the high harmonics of the cyclotron frequency has been theoretically and experimentally demonstrated. As part of an experiment the scheme of the highly efficient gyroresonance device has exhibited good characteristics offered by the following three attributes: a) a magnetron waveguide with an axially directed rod (which provides the mode selection with a required azimuthal index); b) a peniotron interaction mechanism; c) the mode of through gyroresonance (which helps achieve a high electronic efficiency). We have called this type of the device a peniomagnetron. A possibility of developing the peniomagnetron with an electronic-optical system (EOS) comprising a non-heated cold cathode is discussed.
