Abstract :
In this paper, the recent research progress on the V-band traveling-wave tube in our laboratory is presented. Several robust full-metal slow-wave structures, including two circular beam structures and two sheet-beam structures, are investigated and employed to design the V-band traveling-wave tube. The corresponding operating characteristics are predicted by using the particle-in-cell method.
