Quasi-optical mode converter for a high power TE8,3-mode gyrotron
We successfully developed a Gyrotron HS-III (28-GHz/400-kW/5-s) for electron cyclotron resonance heating in a spherical tokamak EXL-50, which operated in the TE8,3 mode. An internal quasi-optical-mode converter was designed to separate the spent electron beam from the outgoing power and convert the operating mode to a fundamental Gaussian wave beam ...
