  Cornell's SRF group has developed Vertical Electro-Polishing (VEP) and applied on 1.3GHz Niobium SRF cavities as the primary surface treatment. High-Q and high voltage performances of VEP'ed SRF cavities had been successfully demonstrated at Cornell. In 2014, new VEP R&D collaboration has started between Cornell, KEK, and Marui Galvanizing Co. Ltd. (MGI). MGI and KEK has developed their original VEP cathode named 'i-cathode Ninja'® which has four retractable wing-shape parts per cell for single-/9-cell cavities. We will report the results of VEP process using 'i-cathode Ninja'® on single cell cavity at Cornell.

  Cornell University has finished building a 10 m long superconducting accelerator module as a prototype of the main linac of a proposed ERL facility. This module houses 6 superconducting cavities- operated at 1.8 K in continuous wave (CW) mode with a design field of 16 MV/m and a Quality factor of 2x1010. We wil shortly review the design and focus on reporting on the first cool-down of this module. We will giving data for various cool-down scenarios (fast/ slow), uniformity and performance

Nitrogen-doping has been shown to consistently produce better quality factors in SRF cavities than is achievable with standard preparation techniques. Unfortunately, nitrogen-doping typically brings with it lower quench fields and higher sensitivities of residual resistance to trapped magnetic flux. Here we present work to understand these effects in hopes of mitigating them while maintaining the high Q desired by future projects. Using a nitrogen diffusion simulation, material parameters of nitrogen-doped cavities can be predicted prior to doping. These simulations results are consistent with SIMS data taken from samples treated with cavities. The nature of doping's effect on quench field has also been studied using CW and pulsed measurements. These results have allowed us to better understand the nature of nitrogen-doping and its effect on cavity performance.
