AB - Laser driven dielectric accelerators (LDA) are vigorously studied in order to apply to various fields in recent years. Characteristics of the LDA output such as sub-micron diameter, atto-second bunch and high acceleration field are suitable for in-situ investigating the biological effects of low doses of radiation in a living cell. The output energy of 1 MeV is sufficient for sniping a cell nucleus or DNA. Although the electronic charge in the bunch is in the order of 10 fC, the tightly focused beam enable to cause a local damage in the cell. We have reported optimum structure parameters of dielectric in the nonrelativistic regime. The low acceleration efficiency of slow electrons by short laser pulses is the serious problem. The accelerator length, laser intensity, pulse width, and optical system must be adjusted to design the practical LDA. We present the design principle of the LDA for nonrelativistic electrons and present status of the pumping laser of us.
