  A new infrared FEL named FELiChEM aiming at the energy chemistry has been constructed and commissioned at NSRL in Hefei. It consists of two FEL oscillators driven by one normal-conducting S-Band linac with maximum beam energy of 60 MeV. The two oscillators generate the midinfrared and far-infrared lasers covering the spectral range of 2.5-50 µm and 40-200 µm, respectively. First lasing was achieved at a wavelength of 15 µm with an electron energy of 35 MeV. Till now, we have observed the FEL signal from 3.5 µm to 30 µm and achieved the maximum micropulse energy up to 27 µJ at 15 µm.

  For low gain free electron laser (FEL), the phase space evolutions of trapped electrons in the phase bucket are analyzed through calculating their synchrotron oscillation periods, which vary with the initial detuning and initial phase. The optimal initial detuning for the maximum energy-extraction efficiency and the corresponding saturation length are given. The analysis demonstrated that for the low gain case the gain of the strong optical field is about a quarter of that of the weak optical field (small signal gain), and the saturation power larger than that of high gain FEL can be achieved in the resonator of oscillator FEL.

Terahertz (THz) radiation has broad applications in biological sciences, materials imaging and radar communications and so on. High-power, frequency-adjustable THz radiation sources are desired. An electron beam, generated in a photoinjector and bunched at terahertz (THz) frequency, will excite a coherent THz radiation when entering an undulator. The radiation power mainly depends on the particle number and the bunching factor of the electron beam, which is limited by the space charge effect among the microbunches and the total rf phase width the macrobunch occupied. Previously we have designed a pre-bunched THz free electron laser (FEL) with the radiation frequency covering 0.5-5 THz. While the radiation intensity for the lower frequency (below 1~THz) is not very high because of the large energy spread and the low bunching factor. We will report a THz FEL by a velocity bunching scheme, which could realize more highly bunched beam especially in the low THz frequency region. The physical design of the electron source is described in detail.
