PG - 044704 LID - 10.1063/1.5080514 [doi] AB - In the experiments of a magnetically insulated transmission line oscillator (MILO), the initiatory microwave frequency is slightly higher than the stable microwave frequency. This paper investigates the influence of the front edge of the voltage on microwave frequency. The theoretical analysis shows that the MILO operates at the 2pi mode in the initiatory stage; therefore, the microwave frequency is determined by the single slow wave structure (SWS) cavity. During the stable operation, the MILO works at the pi mode and the microwave frequency is decided by the structure parameters of the resonant cavity chain. It is a fact that the resonant frequency of a single SWS cavity is higher than that of the resonant cavity chain, so the reason why the initiatory microwave frequency is slightly higher than the stable microwave frequency can be explained. The simulation results agree with the theoretical results.
