Abstract-In this work, the design studies of a 60 GHz, 100 kW CW gyrotron have been presented. Mode selection is carefully studied with the aim of minimizing mode competition and to yield a perfect solid beam output through an RF window with a suitable dimpled-wall quasi-optical launcher. Cavity design and interaction computations are then carried out. In addition, preliminary design of the magnetron injection gun, magnetic guidance system, launcher, and RF window are presented. Thus, we present a feasibility study, which indicates that the operation of such a gyrotron is possible and can give a power in excess of 100 kW at an efficiency > 35%. As a part of this work, a complete Graphical User Interface package "GDS V.01" (Gyrotron Design Suit Ver.01) has been developed for the design and conceptualization of specific gyrotrons.
This paper presents the initial design studies of a 60 GHz conventional cavity gyrotron for plasma diagnostics. Mode selection procedure has been carried out followed by resonator design, RF behavior studies and the design of magnetron injection gun, magnetic system, quasi-optical launcher, and RF window.
