Status and Future of XFEL Source Developments | |
|
||
| Since the first demonstration of the SASE principle in the X-ray regime, there has been an ongoing development on improving and controlling the properties of the generated X-ray FEL pulses. This presentation gives a brief status on these efforts and an outlook of possible improvements in the future. | ||

Progress on Fresh-slice Multi-stage Amplification at SwissFEL | |
|
||
| We present the progress of generating high-power and short FEL pulses using the fresh-slice multi-stage amplification scheme at Athos, the soft X-ray beamline of SwissFEL. We use a transversely tilted electron beam traveling through the unique Athos layout with magnetic chicanes between every two undulator modules. The tail of the bunch produces a short pulse in the first amplification stage. The rest of the electron beam further amplifies the short FEL pulse in up to three additional stages. Our results show the production of FEL radiation with pulse energies of several hundreds of microjoules and pulse durations of about one femtosecond. This operation mode will allow us to advance the scientific opportunities of nonlinear optics and imaging experiments. | ||
