  An X-band Traveling wave Deflector mode cavity (XTD) has been developed, fabricated, tuned and characterized by Radiabeam Technologies to perform longitudinal measurement of the sub-picosecond ultra-relativistic electron beams. The device is optimized for the 100 MeV electron beam parameters at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and is scalable to higher energies. The XTD is designed to operate at 11.424 GHz, and features short filling time, femtosecond resolution, and a small footprint. RF design, structure fabrication, cold testing and tuning results are presented.
