The electric field, the voltage standing wave ratio （VSWR） and the stresses in the vacuum feedthrough are studied. A method using the rings of oxygen-free copper as the cushion and macro- beam plasma arc welding is applied in the assembly to protect the ceramic from being damaged during welding. The vacuum leak test on the prototype of vacuum feedthrough is introduced.展开更多

This antenna consists of four toroidally spaced radiating straps. The electrical characteristics of the new antenna are estimated by using a three-dimensional electromagnetic commercial code. The S-parameters, RF current distribution and electromagnetic field distribution on and near the 4-strap antenna are analyzed, and the RF potentials influenced by antenna phasing and radial position are investigated.展开更多

The proposed MTM structure is designed at a height of 0.8 mm from the ground plane with almost 2 GHz bandwidth. The most interesting feature of the design is the ability of enhancing the gain and total efficiency of the antenna without negative effects of the other important parameters like bandwidth. By using the “d-shaped” MTM structure and printed planar technique, the bandwidth of the MTM traveling-wave antenna is significantly increased at a resonant frequency of 6 GHz and also a foot print area reduction of the antenna structure is provided. Antenna size is 7.2 × 5 × 0.8 mm3. The proposed antenna is suitable for RF portable devices operating at 6 GHz.展开更多
