TUPAB099 | Construction of an Infrared FEL at the Compact ERL | 1608 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by NEDO project "Development of advanced laser processing with intelligence based high-brightness and high-efficiency laser technologies (TACMI project)". The compact Energy Recovery Linac (cERL) has been in operation at KEK since 2013 to demonstrate ERL performance and develop ERL technology. Recently KEK has launched an infrared FEL project with a competitive funding. The purpose of this project is to build a mid-infrared FEL at the cERL, and to use that FEL as a light source for construction of the processing database required for industrial lasers. The FEL system is composed of two 3-m undulators and a matching section between them, and generates light with a maximum pulse energy of 0.1 micro-J at the wavelength of 20 microns with an 81.25 MHz repetition rate. The FEL is also expected to become a proof-of-concept machine for ERL base FELs for future EUV lithography. |

Record High Extraction Efficiency of Free electron Laser Oscillator | |
|
||
Funding: This work was supported by the MEXT Quantum Leap Flagship Program (MEXT Q-LEAP) Grant Number JPMXS0118070271. The highest extraction efficiency (9.4%) of a free electron laser (FEL) oscillator has been achieved at the mid-infrared FEL facility of Kyoto University*. Because of the interaction between the electron beam and FEL electromagnetic field, a maximum electron energy decrease of 16% was observed. The measured energy decrease was consistent with the measured FEL spectrum. An FEL micro-pulse energy of approximately 100 micro-J with micro-pulse duration of 150 fs was observed. This result is an important milestone for the high-extraction-efficiency FEL oscillator and will contribute to the strong-field physics of atoms and molecules. *H. Zen et al., Appl. Phys.
