摘　　要：多注相对论速调管放大器可在较高的工作频段实现GW级功率微波产生,在很多领域得到了发展和应用.多注相对论速调管中强流相对论多注电子束相互之间存在空间电磁场的作用,使得多注电子束从二极管引入多注漂移管,以及在多注漂移管中的传输运动受到影响,导致电子束会轰击到管壁上,早期实验中多注电子束的传输通过率较低.本文对功率数GW的强流相对论多注电子束在二极管与多注漂移管中的运动过程进行了理论分析与粒子仿真模拟,得到强流相对论多注电子束的传输运动规律.对多注二极管的结构进行了优化设计,仿真设计实现强流相对论多注电子束的传输通过率达到99%,并且开展了验证实验研究,实验在电子束电压为801 kV,电流为9.3 kA的情况下,电子束的传输通过率达到92%.The relativistic klystron amplifier(RKA)is one of the most efficient sources to amplify a high-power microwave signal due to its intrinsic merit of high-power conversion efficiency,high gain and stable operating frequency.However,the transverse dimensions of the RKA dramatically decrease when the operating frequency increases to X band,and the power capacity of the RKA is limited by the transverse dimensions.An X-band multiple-beam relativistic klystron amplifier is proposed to overcome the radiation power limitation.Each electron beam propagates in separate drift tubes and shares the same coaxial interaction cavities in the multiple-beam relativistic klystron amplifier,and the transverse dimensions of the multiple-beam relativistic klystron amplifier are free from the operating frequency restriction and a microwave power of over 1 GW is generated in the experiment.For a high-power electron device,the transmission of electron beam is critical,and the power conversion efficiency of the device is affected.In this paper,we conduct an investigation into the transmission process of the intense relativistic multiple electron beams,and the number of the multiple electron beams is set to be 16.It is found that when the multiple electron beam is transmitted in the device,the electron beam rotates around the center of the whole device,causing the electron beam to deviate from the drift tube channel.At the same time,each electron beam rotates around itself,and the cross section of the electron beam is deformed and expanded.In the improper design of electron beam and drift tube parameters,two kinds of rotating motions cause beam to lose.A multiple-electron-beam diode structure is optimized by the particle-incell simulation to reduce beam loss,with the effects of the related factors taken into account.Each pole of the cathodes is made up of graphite and stainless steel.The cathode head is made up of graphite,for the graphite has a lower emission threshold.The cathode base and cathode pole are made up of stainless steel,for th
