Abstract :
The development of high power klystrons based on thermal electron emission is closely related to the progress of cathode technology. The application of cathodes in high power klystrons and multi-beam klystrons, the influence of cathode technology on the performance of high power klystrons, are presented in this paper. The technical problems met in the manufacture of klystrons are discussed.
