Abstract
An X-band, PPM-focused TWT equipped with a 4-stage tilted electric field (TEF) collector has been developed. The collector magnetic field is produced by a single samarium-cobalt magnet. The collector-dissipation reduction factor, which is used to evaluate the performance of a depressed collector, is estimated as 0.14. As the result, an efficiency improvement from 11.8% (base-tube efficiency) to 43% has been achieved at the saturated output power of 22 W at 12 GHz.
