Amplifiers
(Traveling Wave Tubes TWT)
Amplifiers: Principles
Longitudinal static magnetic field applied (e-beam focusing)
Interaction into Slow Wave Structures (SWS)
The electron velocity modulation creates bunches
The electron kinetic energy is converted into RF-Energy
The Static B-Field doesnt contribute to the interaction process

Crossed-Field Devices
The External Static B-Field is perpendicular to
the E-Field components
The synchronism condition is defined by the
geometry which fixes the single operating
frequency
The electron drift velocity (E/B) equals the
phase velocity of the slow EM-wave
The static B-field participates to the interaction
process
The interaction is leading to so-called spokes
formation
