RF-structure design for the W-band folded waveguide TWT project of CEERI

Abstract

CEERI and TU-Berlin have recently started a cooperation to design and build a W-band folded waveguide TWT. In this paper and the corresponding talk we give an insight into the design process of the slow wave structure and present detailed simulation results of the chosen folded waveguide. Due to the long calculation times of the complete structure, pic simulation were still running when writing this abstract. First results look very promising and will we presented in the talk. We are confident to present cold measurement results during the conference as well.
