Abstract

A tubular ring-bar slow wave structure is provided. The structure includes a plurality of axially spaced, coaxially aligned, generally parallel metallic rings connected by a plurality of generally axially parallel, alternately spaced metallic bars. The structure also includes a plurality of axially spaced, coaxially aligned, generally parallel dielectric support rings, each of which has a width that is narrower than the width of a metallic ring.
