|
||
To meet the requirement of material and biomedicine study, a terahertz FEL user facility project was proposed by China Academy of Engineering Physics(CAEP), at present the project has been approved and the facility will be constructed within 5 years. The facility will operate in the quasi CW mode and the average power is about 10W. The wavelength of the light can be regulated between 100μm/3THz to 300μm/1THz according to the user necessary by changing the electron energy and the magnetic field of the wiggler. In order to achieve the high brightness beam, the photocathode DC gun will be used as the electron source. The electron energy after a superconducting accelerator is about 8MeV, which is suitable to obtain the terahertz light. The facility will be a useful tool to the science. | ||
