  A photoinjector usually generates an electron pulse with few ps pulse duration repeating at 10-100 Hz. The low-pulse rate limits the data rate in a number of applications. Although high-repetition-rate operation is possible from a superconducting accelerator, the high cost and complexity of a superconducting system prevent it from being widely used. In this paper, we present our study toward a burst-mode GHz/THz pulse train photoinjector operating at room temperature. For the GHz operation mode, we self-develop a driver laser system, generating tens of laser pulses at 2.856 GHz in an adjustable 5-10 ns temporal envelope repeating at 10 Hz. Upon illuminating the photocathode with the driver laser, our S-band photoinjector (supported by Tsing Hua University, Beijing) is to generate a GHz electron pulse train with the same temporal structure as that of the driver laser pulses. For the THz operation mode, we illuminate the photocathode with two lasers, one being a typical UV gun-driver laser at 260 nm and the other being a mid-infrared laser at 100 THz. The UV laser induces photoemission and the infrared laser gates the emission current at 100 THz by virtue of the Schottky effect.

  A free electron laser (FEL) facility aimed for VUV and THz radiation is being studied at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) in Taiwan. Strong consideration has been given to minimize the cost by making maximum use of existing hardware at NSRRC. One unique consideration is to use an existing undulator for the dual functions of the THz radiator and the modulator of a HGHG section. Design emphasizes versatility of operation and beam quality control and compensation of nonlinearities, with a vision that it will allow as much as possible future upgrades as well as later R&D of FEL physics. The polarization control of the THz radiation provides novel application for the users. The facility is to be housed in the existing 38-m by 5-m tunnel of the TPS Linac Test Laboratory.
