Abstract :
The design of a diode-like, low velocity spread electron gun for a gyrotron amplifier is described. The total longitudinal velocity spread is calculated to be on the order of /spl plusmn/2.5% in a 70 kV, 9 A beam with a v/spl perp//vz velocity ratio of 1.5. Less than /spl plusmn/0.5% spread is attributed to electron ray optics effects. Gyrotron gun design approaches are discussed.
