  X-ray FELs deliver rapid pulses on the femtoseconds scale, and high peak intensities that fluctuate strongly on a pulse-to-pulse basis. The fast drift velocity, and high radiation tolerance properties of CVD (chemical vapor deposition) diamonds, make these crystals a good candi-date material for developing a multi-hundred MHz pass-through diagnostic for the next generation of XFELs. Commercially available diamond sensors work as posi-tion-sensitive pass-through diagnostics for nJ-level pulses from synchrotrons. Supported by the University of Cali-fornia and the SLAC National Laboratory, a collaboration of UC campuses and National Laboratories have devel-oped a new approach to the readout of diamond diagnostic sensors designed to facilitate operation for FEL-relevant uJ and mJ pulses. Single-crystal diamond detectors have been tested on the XPP end station of the Linac Coherent Light Source beam at SLAC. We present results on the linearity and charge collection characteristics as a function of the density of deposited charge.

  The LCLS x-ray free-electron laser at SLAC uses the third km of the original 3-km copper linac. We are now installing LCLS-II, a superconducting linac that replaces the first km. Two undulators, for hard and soft x rays, will be driven by bunches from either linac. One of the solutions developed at SLAC involves a pyroelectric detector, which converts the infrared emitted by the electron bunch into voltage by measuring fast changes in the temperature of the detecting crystal. Not only are the pyrodetectors used at SLAC but also a method with gap diodes. The radial electric field produced by the bunches leaks through a ceramic gap in the beampipe and is collected by a horn antenna and conveyed through a one millimeter waveguide. The waveguides act as a filter, only passing shorter wavelengths and a zero-bias Schottky diode measures the power. In both methods, a portion of the spectral energy emitted by the bunch is intercepted. After normalizing to differentiate between bunches of the same length with different charge, the detected signal is sensitive to only changes in bunch length. This poster discusses the mechanics and optics behind the LCLS-II bunch length monitors operations and plans for collaboration.
