  A hard X-ray self-seeding utilizing time-delayed forward Bragg diffracted photons from thin diamond crystals has been successfully commissioned in a broad spectral range (3.5~14.4 keV), and will be soon provided to user experiments. In the self-seeded mode, the spectral bandwidth is typically 0.2~0.5 eV FWHM in contrast to SASE mode, in which the spectral bandwidth is around 20 eV. This implies that the seeded FEL can be a single longitudinal mode laser since the number of longitudinal mode is 100~200 in the SASE operation. In this case, the photon number of filtered FEL is expected to be fluctuated 100% from the narrow bandwidth filtering out of random and spiky SASE spectra. We found that our energy stability of electron bunches (10-4) do not degrade much the seeding performance and the large variation of the seeded FEL intensity will be from the seeding probability. The advantages of 30 um thin diamond crystal and diagnostic tool for the self-seeding will be also presented.

  To improve the characteristics of electron beams, new S-band photocathode RF gun with a coaxial coupler has been developed and fabricated at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). This new RF gun is improved the field symmetry inside the cavity cell by applying the coaxial coupler, and the cooling performance by improving the cooling lines. The RF gun is installed in the injector test facility (ITF) for high power RF test. This paper reports the recent results on the RF conditioning process and the beam tests of the RF gun with high power RF at ITF. We present and discuss the measurement results of the basic beam parameters.

  Recently, a Hard X-ray Self-Seeding setup was commissioned at PAL XFEL. Its main purpose is to increase the temporal coherence of FEL radiation in an active way. We report another application of this setup to generate trains of short sub-femtosecond pulses with linked phases. We discuss preliminary results of both experiment and corresponding simulations as well as indirect diagnostics of the radiation properties.
