Latest experimental developments of W-band gyro-devices with helically corrugated waveguides and a cusp electron gun are presented. The cusp generated a 40 keV, 1.5 A axis-encircling electron beam. Helical corrugated waveguides have ideal dispersive properties which improve the frequency tuning range of a gyrotron backward wave oscillator (gyro-BWO) whilst maintaining the already good efficiency of operation. The output power of the gyro-BWO was measured to be 12 kW with a frequency tuning range of 88-103 GHz.
