Earlier experiments at Fermilab’s A0 Photoinjector Laboratory demonstrated successful transverse-to-longitudinal emittance exchange (EEX) using a transverse-deflecting cavity (TDC) located between two identical doglegs. Such a design has the disadvantage of transversely displacing the beam. An alternative is an EEX beamline designed out of a variable R56 bunch compressor chicane. In this paper, we present designs and simulation comparisons for several emittance-exchanger beamlines, including the double-dogleg and chicane designs, as well as variations of the chicane design that allow for increasing its dispersion which proportionally decreases the field-strength requirements on the TDC. These comparisons are performed with PIC models of space charge and coherent synchrotron radiation.

  The High-Brightness Electron Source Lab (HBESL) operates an L-band RF gun (1.3-GHz) that incorporates a Cesium Telluride photocathode illuminated by ultra-short (sub-100-fs) laser pulses. In this contribution we report recent studies on (1) characterizing the longitudinal phase of the photoemitted bunch in the blow-out regime using a single-shot diagnostics, (2) exploring the electron beam emission using 800 nm laser pulses (instead of the 266 nm nominal wavelength).
