ABSTRACT:
The disclosed multipactor device has a waveguide bandpass filter structure including a plurality of spaced pairs of opposing electrodes defining respective gaps therebetween in which multipactor action can occur in response to input microwave power in excess of a predetermined level. A radioactive source of beta particles provides electrons within the bandpass filter structure to ensure a very rapid commencement of multipactor action. The radioactive source includes a disk coated with a tritium compound and mounted in a transverse bore adjacent to the bandpass filter structure.
