Abstract

Abstract A miniature planar meander-type slow-wave structure (SWS) for a W-band traveling-wave tube is studied. Computer simulation of the SWS electrodynamic parameters is performed. A new technology for fabrication of planar microstrip SWSs with the aid of laser ablation is proposed. The S-parameters of the SWS are experimentally studied. The experimental data are in good agreement with the results of the 3D computer simulation. Output characteristics of the traveling-wave tube with a sheet electron beam and planar SWS are calculated.
