Cavity modification is proposed with the aim of enhancing the continuous frequency tunability of a gyrotron. The modification can be applied to both uniform and tapered gyrotron cavities and involves just using an additional cavity section. It ensures larger effective cavity length and thus lower starting current for higher order axial modes. As a consequence, the frequency tuning band of the gyrotron can be increased significantly. Moreover, the proposed cavity modification is beneficial for smoothing the variations of output power within the tuning band.
