CPI VGB8193

CPI gyrotron amplifiers are the only commercially available W-band amplifiers with high peak and average output
powers. The VGB-8193, a five-section gyro-amplifier, can be operated at peak output powers up to 55 kW and
average output powers up to 5.5 kW. The full-width-half-maximum bandwidth is 1.6 GHz and the saturated gain is
33 dB. A CVD diamond window, developed for use on high-power gyrotron oscillators, has been adapted for the
amplifier. The VGB-8193 is available with a refrigerator-cooled 4 Telsa superconducting magnet which does not
require liquid cryogens.
