Description
A C-band klystron is being developed to provide power to a fully integrated compact linear accelerator system. The design of this high-power RF source was centered on minimizing weight and volume. In doing so, a novel periodic permanent magnet focusing circuit was developed alongside a compact RF circuit to achieve > 50% efficiency in simulation. Fabrication of this system is underway and high-power tests will be performed.
