  Beam shaping at normal-conducting, accelerator-based FELs, such as LCLS, plays an important role for improving lasing performance and for supporting special operating modes, such as the self-seeding scheme. Beam shaping methods include horn-collimation and dechirper manipulation. Applying the beam shaping concept to high-repetition-rate FELs driven by a superconducting linac, such as LCLS-II, beam invasive methods are not preferred due to concerns about high power deposition. We have recently studied a few shaping options for LCLS-II, such as manipulating the beam chirp before compression using corrugated devices, and modifying higher order optics terms in a chicane using octupoles. In this report we will discuss the results.
