在这篇文章中我们的目的是讨论微波管工艺学和理论概念对于了解等离子体和可能的等离子体器件的发展的可能影响。微波工程师能够并已经对等离子体领域作出贡献的有三条途径。第一,在于发明和发展利用等离子体特性的微波器件,特别是,这已经导致了在电子束-等离子体放大器的研究方面的巨大努力。然而,也有一些被动的等离子 Our purpose in this article is to discuss the possible implications of microwave tube technology and theoretical concepts for understanding the development of plasma and possible plasma devices. There are three ways microwave engineers can and have contributed to the plasma field. First, there is the discovery and development of microwave devices that exploit the plasma characteristics, and in particular, this has led to tremendous efforts in the research of electron beam-plasma amplifiers. However, there are also some passive plasma
