- Additional information
- This is the first time that a new slow wave structure is comprehensively investigated, resulting in the provision of a credible replacement of the helix in TWT. The research was supported by a leading UK vacuum electronics company, Teledyne-e2v (andy.wood@teledyne-e2v.com), in collaboration with the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and funded by STFC Grant ST/L003406/1 (£130k). The novel coupler obtained by bending the double corrugated waveguide was successfully patented (WO2016/059388). This patented structure was used for millimetre waves TWT in two international collaboration grants led by Paoloni: DLINK (EP/S009620/1, £432k) and ULTRAWAVE (EC H2020 grant 762119, £2.6M).
