Abstract

A high power gyrotron using pulsed power generator ETIGO-IV is being developed. The typical output waveform to a matched load of ETIGO-IV is 400 kV in peak voltage, 13 kA in peak current and 120 ns in pulse length. The combination of high energy electron beam with such a power supply and a high magnetic field opens the possibility of submillimeter wave generation with an output power above 1 MW to a large orbit gyrotron.
