Design of Correcting Mirrors for a Gyrotron Used at Large Helical Device
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the design of a mirror correcting system used at the Large Helical Device (LHD) to convert the output radiation of the CPI 84 GHz gyrotron into the HE11 mode of a corrugated waveguide transmission line. The radiation pattern of the gyrotron is measured using an IR camera at LHD. The measured data is analyzed at MIT to retrieve the phase distribution of the radiation. The moments of the measured amplitude arrays are calculated to improve the reliability of the IR images. The retrieved radiation structure is treated to synthesize the correcting mirrors.

Evaluation of phase correcting mirrors for an 84 GHz gyrotron based on direct phase measurements at low-power level
A low-power test system using a vector network analyzer is constructed to evaluate the performance of phase correcting mirrors in a matching optics unit (MOU). The MOU is used in order to facilitate the good coupling of a millimeter wave beam from a gyrotron into corrugated waveguides. The newly developed diagnostic system allows us to make measurements not only of intensity-, but also of phase...
متن کاملWave Motion and Stop-Bands in Pipes with Helical Characteristics Using Wave Finite Element Analysis
Pipes are widely used in many industrial and mechanical applications and devices. Although there are many different constructions according to the specific application and device, these can show helical pattern, such as spiral pipes, wire-reinforced pipes/shells, spring-suspension, and so on. Theoretical modelling of wave propagation provides a prediction about the dynamic behavior, and it is f...
متن کاملCalculation of Radiation from a Helically Cut Waveguide for a Gyrotron Mode Converter in the Quasi-Optical Approximation
A gyrotron internal mode converter consists of a launcher that radiates the waveguide mode as a nearly Gaussian beam in free space, followed by a set of mirrors to focus and direct the radiation. We present a calculation of the radiation from the launcher based on a quasi-optical approach that includes diffraction. The results are in good agreement with a calculation using a numerical code base...

A Dynamic Nuclear Polarisation (DNP) enhanced solid-state Magic Angle Spinning (MAS) NMR spectrometer operating at 6.7 T is described and demonstrated. The 187 GHz TE(13) fundamental mode of the FU CW VII gyrotron is used as the microwave source for this magnetic field strength and 284 MHz (1)H DNP-NMR. The spectrometer is designed for use with microwave frequencies up to 395 GHz (the TE(16) se...
