  It has been suggested that the MeV beam generated from a laser-driven photo-cathode rf gun can be used for ultrafast electron diffraction (UED)*. The feasibility of operating the NSRRC photo-cathode rf gun system for ultrashort bunch generation is being investigated. The results of space-charge tracking calculations show that a low emittance, few hundred femtoseconds MeV beam with reasonable bunch charge can be generated for single shot UED experiments. In this report, a preliminary design of this UED system will be discussed.

  A driver linac based on a photocathode RF gun injector system for a proposed free electron laser facility at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) in Taiwan is under study. This facility is designed to be operated in two modes, one for the VUV application and one for the THz application to fulfil the user needs. Generally the VUV radiation prefers a low emittance, high peak current beam free from collective instability during acceleration and magnetic pulse compression, whereas the THz radiation needs a moderate charge in hundred femtosecond bunch length free from space charge degradation in a transport line. In this paper, the schemes of bunch compression as well as the strategy to optimize and control of the beam quality will be presented.

  A high brightness photo-injector is under development for single pass FEL research at NSRRC. The gun test facility (GTF) equipped with a photocathode rf gun a compensation solenoid, a S-band high power pulse klystron as well as a UV driver laser has been constructed for testing the photocathode rf gun. The gun is fabricated in house and being tested at the GTF. Since the transverse emittance is a key property of the electron beam from the rf gun, multi-slit method is used to characterize the transverse emittance of the electron beam. Another key property of the electron beam is bunch length. An S-band three-cell deflecting cavity is designed to measure the bunch length. The setup and results of emittance measurement as well as the structure design of the deflecting cavity is reported in this contribution.

  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.
