Yukardaki TWT.
In the klystron, the electron beam passes through a hole in a
Resonant cavity
which is connected to the source RF signal.TWT is an amplifier and a Magnetron is an oscillator.
Magnetron is a high voltage diode (vacuum tube) with strong magnets attached to sides. As the electrons flow, the flow is bent on the sides because of the magnets. The electrons at the center flow straight. This causes a delay in the bent electrons reaching the anode. Delayed bombarding causes microwave to be generated.
