  • Abstract
    The two-fold enhancement in the conversion efficiency of a monotron operating in the pi mode-instead of the TM010 mode for which the efficiency is limited to 20 percent-arises from a phase synchronization process due the action of RF electric fields of reversed signs in each partition of the bisected cavity.
