    Abstract

    With the fast development of folded waveguide Traveling Wave Tube(TWT), there is an urgent need for attenuation materials with high thermal conductivity and good mechanical properties. In this study, boron-doped diamond film is prepared and the dielectric property of the film is analyzed. Meanwhile, the boron-doped diamond attenuator is fabricated and the thermal stability of the attenuator is investigated. The results show that the dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent are 7.18 and 0.30 in W-band for the diamond film with boron concentration of 1.81×1019 cm -3. Moreover, the return loss and insertion loss of boron-doped diamond attenuator are 19.67 dB and 44.03 dB, respectively. With the temperature increased from room temperature to 90 ℃, the return loss and insertion loss of attenuator are increased to 20.94 dB and 45.63 dB, which demonstrates high thermal stability of the boron-doped diamond attenuator.
