	Funding: This work was supported by DARPA under contract N66001-1-11-4192. Intense, ultrafast THz fields are of great interest for electron acceleration, beam manipulation and measurement, and pump-probe experiments with coherent soft/hard x-ray sources based on FELs or inverse Compton scattering sources. Acceleration at THz frequencies has an advantage over RF in terms of accessing high electric-field gradients (>100 MV/cm), while the beam delivery can be treated quasi-optically. However, high-field THz pulse generation is still demanding when compared with conventional RF generation. In this paper, we present highly efficient, single-cycle, 0.45 THz pulse generation by optical rectification of 1.03 μm pulses in cryogenically cooled lithium niobate (LN). Using a near-optimal duration of 680 fs and a pump energy of 1.2 mJ, we report conversion efficiencies above 3% [1], >10 times higher than previous report (0.24%) [2]. Cryogenic cooling of lithium niobate significantly reduces the THz absorption, which will enable the scaling of THz pulse energies to the mJ. We will also report on polarization and mode conversion using segmented THz waveplates to generate radially-polarized TEM01 modes, suitable for THz electron acceleration in dielectric waveguide.

	Funding: Work supported by the Director, Office of Science, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 The Next Generation Light Source (NGLS) is a design concept for a multibeamline soft x-ray FEL array powered by a ~2.4 GeV CW superconducting linear accelerator, operating with a 1 MHz bunch repetition rate. This paper describes the concepts for the cavity and cryostat design operating at 1.3 GHZ and based on minimal modifications to the design of ILC cryomodules, This leverages the extensive experience derived from R&D that resulted in the ILC design. Due to the different nature of the two applications, particular attention is given now to high loaded Q operation and microphonics control, as well as high reliability and expected up time. The work describes the design and configuration of the linac, including choice of gradient, possible modes of operation, cavity design and RF power, as well as the consequent requirements for the cryogenic system.
