Abstract :
The gyrotron complex on the DIII-D tokamak now comprises six 110 GHz gyrotrons with injected power greater than 3 MW. The system is in regular use at DIII-D for a wide variety of plasma physics experiments. Several additional experiments related to gyrotron technology and photovoltaic conversion have been undertaken.
