Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 7, 112001 (2004) [7 pages]New method for generation of short high-power rf pulses
The effect of “pressing out” of a short rf powerful pulse by an electron beam from a Bragg cavity pumped by a low-power input rf signal is studied. This effect occurs as a result of the transient process from the “cold” (without the electron beam) steady state of the system to the “hot” one. It is shown that the peak power of the output pulse can be significantly higher than both the pumping rf power and the electron beam power. As for the duration of the output pulse, it is fixed by the cold characteristics of the microwave system. This article is available under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.
