  2. Cavity magnetron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_magnetron

    The cavity magnetron is a high-power vacuum tube used in early radar systems and subsequently in microwave ovens and in linear particle accelerators. A cavity magnetron generates microwaves using the interaction of a stream of electrons with a magnetic field, while moving past a series of cavity resonators, which are small, open cavities in a ...

  3. Klystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klystron

    The gyroklystron is a microwave amplifier with operation dependent on the cyclotron resonance condition. [13] Similarly to the klystron, its operation depends on the modulation of the electron beam, but instead of axial bunching the modulation forces alter the cyclotron frequency and hence the azimuthal component of motion, resulting in phase ...

  4. MIT Radiation Laboratory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_Radiation_Laboratory

    The resonant cavity magnetron continued to evolve at the Rad Lab. A team led by I.I. Rabi first extended the operation of the magnetron from 10-cm (called S-band), to 6-cm (C-band), then to 3-cm (X-band), and eventually to 1-cm (K-band). To keep pace, all of the other radar sub-systems also were evolving continuously.

  5. Traveling-wave tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling-wave_tube

    The TWT is an elongated vacuum tube with an electron gun (a heated cathode that emits electrons) at one end.A voltage applied across the cathode and anode accelerates the electrons towards the far end of the tube, and an external magnetic field around the tube focuses the electrons into a beam.

  6. Maser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maser

    The theoretical principles governing the operation of a maser were first described by Joseph Weber of the University of Maryland, College Park at the Electron Tube Research Conference in June 1952 in Ottawa, [2] with a summary published in the June 1953 Transactions of the Institute of Radio Engineers Professional Group on Electron Devices, [3] and simultaneously by Nikolay Basov and Alexander ...

  7. Penning trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penning_trap

    With the help of the expert glassblower of the Department, Jake Jonson, I built my first high vacuum magnetron trap in 1959 and was soon able to trap electrons for about 10 sec and to detect axial, magnetron and cyclotron resonances." – H. Dehmelt. H. Dehmelt shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1989 for the development of the ion trap technique.

  9. Waveguide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide

    A waveguide in circuit theory is described by a transmission line having a length and characteristic impedance. [ 18 ] : 2–3, 6–12 [ 19 ] : 14 [ 20 ] In other words, the impedance indicates the ratio of voltage to current of the circuit component (in this case a waveguide) during propagation of the wave.
