  FEL oscillators usually operate in CW mode and produce periodic train of radiation pulses but some user experiments require modulation of radiation power. Conventional way to obtain this modulation is using of mechanical shutters but it cannot provide very short switching time and may lead to decreasing of the radiation beam quality. Another way could be based on the electron beam current modulation but it cannot be used in the ERL. We propose a simple way of fast control of the FEL lasing which is based on periodic phase shift of electron bunches with respect to radiation stored in optical cavity. The phase shift required to suppress lasing is relatively small and it does not change significantly repetition rate. This approach has been realized at NovoFEL facility. It allows to generate radiation macropulses of desirable length down to several microseconds (limited by quality factor of optical cavity and FEL gain) which can be synchronized with external trigger. We present detailed description of electronic power modulation scheme and discuss the results of experiments.

  This paper presents the results of experimental investigations of the fine and hyperfine spectral structures of the Novosibirsk free-electron laser (NovoFEL) and the compact free-electron laser of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI FEL) by means of the optimal instruments, resonance Fabry-Perot interferometers. The very high coherence of the NovoFEL spectrum was measured in regimes with one pulse circulating inside its optical resonator (the coherence length is 7 km, and the relative width of the hyperfine structure lines is 2E-8) and with total absence of coherence between two circulating pulses, i.e. the fine structure. Sixty pulses circulate simultaneously inside the KAERI FEL optical resonator, and the measured coherence length on average covers ten pulses (the coherence length is 1 m; the relative width of the fine structure lines is 10-4).
