The Multicavity Klystron

  • A.is not low-level amplifier because of noise
  • B.has a high repeller voltage to ensure a rapid transit time.
  • C.is not suitable for pulsed operation
  • D.needs a long transit time through the buncher cavity to ensure current modulation

Answer: A

The multicavity klystron is not suited as a low-level amplifier because of its noise. Noise from the beam, which is velocity-modulated and bunched, becomes large relative to a small input, so the klystron is used as a high-power amplifier.

The rapid-transit-time statement is wrong because a reflex klystron's repeller voltage sets the transit time of the repeller space and the multicavity klystron has no repeller. A multicavity klystron can be pulsed, and a long transit time through the buncher cavity would lower, not ensure, the current modulation.
