	ARES (Accelerator Research Experiment at Sinbad) is a linear accelerator for the production of low charge (from few pC to sub-pC) electron bunches with 100 MeV energy, fs and sub-fs duration and excellent arrival time stability. This experiment is currently under construction at DESY Hamburg and it is foreseen to start operation by the beginning of 2018 with the commissioning of the RF-gun. After an initial beam characterization phase, ARES will provide high temporal resolution probes for testing novel acceleration techniques, such as Laser driven plasma Wake-Field Acceleration (LWFA), Dielectric Laser Acceleration (DLA) and THz driven acceleration. In this work we present an overview of the present design of the linac with a special focus on 3D integration and planned installation phases of the beamline.

	In modern Free-Electron Lasers like FLASH or the European XFEL, the short and long-term stability of RF reference signals gains in importance. The requirements are driven by the demand for short FEL pulses and low-jitter FEL operation. In previous publications, a novel, integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer based scheme for a phase detector between the optical and the electrical domain was presented and evaluated. This Laser-to-RF phase detector is the key component of the integrated 1.3 GHz Optical Reference Module (REFM-OPT) for FLASH and the European XFEL. The REFM-OPT will phase-stabilize 1.3 GHz RF reference signals to the pulsed optical synchronization systems in these accelerators. Design choices in the final hardware configuration are presented together with measurement results and a performance evaluation from the first operation period in the European XFEL.

THPAB109	Fs Level Laser-to-RF Synchronization at REGAE	3972
	M. Titberidze, M. Felber, T. Lamb, H. Schlarb, C. Sydlo DESY, Hamburg, Germany R.A. Loch MPSD, Hamburg, Germany
	The Relativistic Electron Gun for Atomic Exploration (REGAE) is a unique linear accelerator capable of producing ultrashort (~ 10 fs) electron bunches for studying fast processes in matter by means of ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) experiments. Additionally, REGAE is suitable for upcoming external injection experiments for laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA). In order to carry out both mentioned experiments, it is crucial to achieve fs level stability in terms of Laser-to-RF synchronization. In this paper we present an advanced laser-to-RF synchronization scheme based on integrated Mach-Zehnder modulator. The setup demonstrated the Titanium Sapphire photo-injector laser synchronization with 11 fs (rms) precision in the bandwidth up to 100 kHz. Long term timing drift measurements showed unprecedented peak-to-peak stability of 31 fs (7 fs rms) over 43 hours of measurement time. In addition, AM-PM coefficient of the MZM based laser-to-RF synchronization setup has been evaluated and showed a factor of 10 improved performance compared to conventional direct conversion based laser synchronization setup.
