WEPWA053 | First Acceleration in a Resonant Optical-Scale Laser-Powered Structure | 2624 |
|

Funding: U.S. DTRA grant HDTRA1-09-1-0043 The Micro-Accelerator Platform (MAP), an optical-scale dielectric laser accelerator (DLA) based on a planar resonant structure that was developed at UCLA, has been tested experimentally. Successful acceleration was observed after a series of experimental runs at SLAC’s NLCTA facility, in which the input laser power was well below the predicted breakdown limit. Though acceleration gradients were modest (<50 MeV/m), these are the first proof-of-principle results for a resonant DLA structure. We present more detailed results and some implications for future work. |

TUYC3 | Scaling Down Synchronous Acceleration: Recent Results, Current Status, and Future Plans of a Subrelativistic Dielectric Laser Acceleration Project | 1325 |
|
||
This talk will describe the latest results using laser powered dielectric accelerators. Recent experiments in the US (SLAC) and Europe (MPQ) have fabricated dielectric accelerators powered with optical lasers and used them to accelerate electrons with gradients between 25 and 300 MeV/m. The latest results will be reviewed and prospects and applications for the future will be discussed. | ||
