Three-Dimensional Electromagnetic High Frequency Concave Cavity Scars

Warne, Larry K.; Jorgenson, Roy E.; Reines, Isak C.; Coats, Rebecca S. ; Pack, Alden R.; Zinser, B.Z.

This report examines the localization of high frequency electromagnetic fields in general three-dimensional cavities along periodic paths between opposing sides of the cavity. The focus is on the case where the mirrors at the ends of the orbit are concave and have two different radii of curvature. The cases where these orbits lead to unstable localized modes are known as scars. The ellipsoidal coordinate system is utilized in the construction of the scarred modes. The field at the interior foci is examined as well as trigonometric projections along the periodic scarred ray path.

Penetration Bounds For Azimuthal Slot On Infinite Cylinder With Finite Length Backing Cylindrical Cavity

Warne, Larry K.; Campione, Salvatore; Martin, Luis S.; Pack, Alden R.; Langston, William L.; Zinser, Brian &.

We examine coupling into azimuthal slots on an infinite cylinder with a infinite length interior cavity operating both at the fundamental cavity modal frequencies, with small slots and a resonant slot, as well as higher frequencies. The coupling model considers both radiation on an infinite cylindrical exterior as well as a half space approximation. Bounding calculations based on maximum slot power reception and interior power balance are also discussed in detail and compared with the prior calculations. For higher frequencies limitations on matching are imposed by restricting the loads ability to shift the slot operation to the nearest slot resonance; this is done in combination with maximizing the power reception as a function of angle of incidence. Finally, slot power mismatch based on limited cavity load quality factor is considered below the first slot resonance.
