Title: Radiofrequency window
Inventor: Ian Shinton
IPC: H01P1/08
Filed: 2019-05-31
Abstract: A Radio Frequency, RF window 312 comprises a first 304 and a second 308 cavity and a plate of dielectric material positioned therebetween 306. At least one of the first 304 and second 308 cavities comprises a taper, beginning at the plate 306, such that the at least one of the first 304 and second 308 cavities reduces in diameter in a direction away from the plate. When the RF window 312 forms part of an RF system, the first cavity 204 is coupled with a first connecting cavity 302 and the second cavity 308 is coupled with a second connecting cavity 310. In use, RF travels from the first connecting cavity 302 through the RF window and into the second connecting cavity 310. As the RF window comprises at least one frustoconical cavity there is no cylindrical waveguide structure in the vicinity of the ceramic. Therefore, RF travelling through the RF window forms spherical modes, rather than cylindrical modes. By making use of spherical modes in this way, a more compact size of RF window can be achieved (in length and in diameter) and ensures there are no trapped modes at or near to a particular operating frequency.
