Abstract
The results of the experimental study of a gyrotron with a single-stage depressed collector are reported. Voltage retarding the electron beam was fed to the tube collector, and the dependence of the RF output power on the solenoidal magnetic field was recorded. A 1-MW output power was reached by increasing the gyrotron efficiency from 40 to 65% with a single-stage depressed collector.
