Abstract :
A new millimeter-wave barrier window in an oversized metallic circular waveguide has been developed for high-power transmission. The novel design utilizes the traveling-wave regime in an oversized profiled guide and synthesized TE0n mode mixing to minimize field intensity at the alumina ceramics surface. Proper choice of ceramics thickness provides necessary broadening of the operation frequency band. Low-power measurements show a reflection level below -25 dB at the operating frequency band of 34.272 plusmn 0.06 GHz
