Abstract :
Calabazas Creek Research, Inc. is developing a broadband system to couple RF power from MW-class gyrotrons that eliminates the external matching optical unit. A critical component is a Brewster window in HE11 waveguide. This paper describes progress in fabrication and testing of the window.
