Abstract:An axially extracted virtual cathode oscillator(vircator) with a feedbackannulus is configured through particle-in-cell(PIC) simulation. And the effects of thefeedbackmechanism are studied through PIC method. The simulationresults indicate that the new vircator can increase the output power more than two times compared with the conventionalaxiallyextracted vircator under the same condition. Besides it can narrow the bandwidth and purify the modes.
