Abstract
Efficiency enhancement in a gyrotron backward wave oscillator (gyro-BWO) with a nonlinearly tapered waveguides is investigated with a self-consistent code. It is shown that the interaction efficiency can be enhanced significantly to a value as high as 61%. Mechanism of the efficiency enhancement is interpreted physically via phase space diagrams.
