Background technology
High-Power Microwave refer to frequency in 1~300GHz scope and peak power at the electromagnetic wave of more than 100MW, L-band refer to frequency 1~2GHz radio waveband.Along with Pulse Power Techniques and the development of plasma physics, High-Power Microwave technology also develops by leaps and bounds, and especially achieves progress greatly in terms of the development of high-power microwave source, successively occurs in that wide variety of different types of high-power microwave source.Virtual Cathode Oscillators is one of important research direction of high-power microwave source, receives and pay much attention in the world and widely studied in more than the 20 year time in past.
It is commonly called Virtual Cathode Oscillators and is totally different from common microwave source, because it needs an electric current exceeding space-charge-limited flow.Space-charge-limited flow refers to such a electric current, and when injection current exceedes this electric current, electrostatic potential energy exceedes the kinetic energy of electron beam, and therefore, electron reflection, reflection electronic are vibrated between real negative electrode and virtual cathode by virtual cathode, and this is referred to as reflex mechanism.Virtual cathode is unstable, and its position and gesture value are also vibrated.Both mechanism can produce the approximately equalised microwave radiation of frequency.Compared with other microwave sources, Virtual Cathode Oscillators has concept and advantages of simple structure and simple.It produces high power levels, and easily tunes, because it depends on that charge density does not relies on any condition of resonance.
Virtual Cathode Oscillators is a kind of space charge device, under high voltage, the strong current electron beam of emission of cathode is injected in drift tube through anode network, owing to electronics has strong space charge effect, the transmission that the electron beam being only less than space-charge-limited flow intensity can be stable.When electronic beam current exceedes the intensity of space charge limited current, electron beam potential energy in potential well will be increased to be enough to offset the kinetic energy that electron institute has, and causes beam electrons to form virtual cathode in a large amount of clustering in certain position in anode downstream.On the one hand being formed of virtual cathode will stop the continuation transmission of electronics, reflection incident electron part, reflection electronic is by being returned to by the effect of true negative electrode again after anode network, and then reflection electronic forms reflex mechanism vibration between real negative electrode and virtual cathode, produces microwave radiation;On the other hand the return of electronics makes gesture value at virtual cathode reduce, and electron beam can transmit again, in turn results in gesture value and increases, and continues to stop the further transmission of electronics, makes the self-position of virtual cathode and gesture value all vibrate, produce electromagnetic radiation.
The formation and development of virtual cathode is a unstable kinematic nonlinearity process: on the one hand, it has a nagative potential being substantially the same anode with negative electrode, therefore the electronics in virtual cathode district to reflect back to anode, these reflection electronics arrive near negative electrode through anode, pushed back by negative electrode is counter again, postback and be reflected towards external radiation microwave, here it is well known electron reflection produces the mechanism of microwave;On the other hand, after electronics is reflected back, the electron number densitiy in virtual cathode district is little, and electromotive force to change, the position of potential well also to change, meanwhile, the electronics of true emission of cathode constantly supplements electronics to virtual cathode again so that virtual cathode district electron number densitiy increases to be liked, thus cause the current potential of virtual cathode and position all to change, form concussion from macroscopically will appear as virtual cathode with room and time, thus encourage microwave radiation, here it is virtual cathode self-oscillation produces the mechanism of microwave.So, Virtual Cathode Oscillators is the Space-time oscillating by virtual cathode itself and electronics two kinds of mechanism of the roundtrip between virtual cathode and negative electrode produce microwave jointly.
