Y. Hirata et al., WAVE-BEAM SHAPING USING MULTIPLE PHASE-CORRECTION MIRRORS, IEEE transactions on microwave theory and techniques, 45(1), 1997, pp. 72-77
This paper describes a scheme for shaping a given wave beam into the d
esired profile using multiple phase-correction mirrors. This mirror sy
stem was applied to a gyrotron internal converter to flatten the radia
ted beam profile at the window. The flat output beam is reconverted in
to HE11 mode, a basic propagation mode for corrugated waveguides, by a
nother pair of phase-correction mirrors for transmission into a fusion
reactor. In addition, a wave beam splitting and combining technique i
s also presented.
