MOPAB376 | Design and Fabrication of a Quadrupole Resonator for SRF R&D | SRF, cavity, quadrupole, radio-frequency | 1158 |
|
|||
As Nb superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities are now approaching the theoretical limits of the material, a variety of different surface treatments have been developed to further improve their performance; although no fully understood theory is yet available. Small superconducting samples are studied to characterize their material properties and their evolution under different surface treatments. To study the RF properties of such samples under realistic SRF conditions at low temperatures, a test cavity called quadrupole resonator (QPR) is currently being fabricated. In this work we report the status of the QPR at Universität Hamburg in collaboration with DESY. Our device is based on the QPRs operated at CERN and at HZB and its design will allow for testing samples under cavity-like conditions, i.e., at temperatures between 2K and 8 K, under magnetic fields up to 120mT and with operating frequencies of 433 MHz, 866 MHz and 1300 MHz. Fabrication tolerance studies on the electromagnetic field distributions and simulations of the static detuning of the device, together with a status report on the current manufacturing process, will be presented. | |||

MOPAB379 | Topological Optimization on SRF Cavities for Nuclear and High Energy Physics | cavity, superconducting-cavity, radiation, simulation | 1162 |
|
|||
Topology optimization has been developed for more than twenty years. The progress of additive manufacturing boosts the development in topological optimization since the design can be completely innovated and realized by 3D printing. The potential for cost reductions thanks to weight minimization give an interesting perspective for the small production of niobium superconducting radio-frequency cavities, commonly used in accelerators. The traditional manufacturing technologies of cavities are based on multi-stage processes while additive manufacturing technologies can built fully functional parts in a single operation. For modern accelerators that use superconducting linac, including energy recovery linacs (ERLs), it is particularly important to know the perspectives of additive manufacturing for SRF cavities. In this paper, we try to build a preliminary perception of topological optimization in superconducting cavities manufacturing innovation. | |||

MOPAB383 | Pressure Test for Large Grain and Fine Grain Niobium Cavities | cavity, SRF, experiment, FEM | 1173 |
|
|||
The pressure test was performed using a fine grain (FG) and a large grain (LG) niobium cavities. The cavity is 1.3 GHz 3-cell TESLA-like shape. The cavity was housed in a steel vessel. Water is supplied into the vessel and the cavity outside is pressurized. The applying pressure and the natural frequency of cavity were measured during the pressure test. The FG and LG cavities were deformed greatly and the pressure dropped suddenly at 3.4 MPa and 1.6 MPa, respectively. The frequency shifted up to 3.4 MHz and 1.3 MHz, respectively. There was no leak after the pressure test, so the cavity did not rupture under above pressure. The result of the pressure at LG cavity is less half than that of the FG cavity. We calculated the stress distribution in the structure by applying outer water pressure using a FEM. The maximum stress at cell when above test pressure is applied, are 146 MPa in FG and 73 MPa in LG, respectively. These stresses are similar to tensile strength of niobium specimen measure by ourselves. The result of pressure tests agrees well with the calculation. | |||

MOPAB384 | Nb3Sn Coating of Twin Axis Cavity for Accelerator Applications | cavity, linac, SRF, dipole | 1175 |
|
|||
Funding: Research supported by DOE Office of Science Accelerator Stewardship Program Award DE- SC0019399. Partially authored by Jefferson Science Associates under contract no. DEAC0506OR23177 A Superconducting twin axis cavity consisting of two identical beam pipes that can accelerate and decelerate beams within the same structure has been proposed for the Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) applications. There are two niobium twin axis cavities at JLab fabricated with the intention of later Nb3Sn coating and now we are progressing to coat them using vapor diffusion method. Nb3Sn is a potential alternate material for replacing Nb in SRF cavities for better performance and reducing operational costs. Because of advanced geometry, larger surface area, increased number of ports and hard to reach areas of the twin axis cavities, the usual coating approach developed for typical elliptical single-axis cavities must be evaluated and requires to be adjusted. In this contribution, we report the first results from the coating of a twin axis cavity and discuss current challenges with an outlook for the future. |

MOPAB401 | In-Situ EXAFS Investigations of Nb-Treatments in N2, O2 and N2-O2 Mixtures at Elevated Temperatures | vacuum, site, experiment, cavity | 1214 |
|
|||
Funding: We gratefully acknowledge financial support by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) under project No. 05H18PXRB1. Smooth polycrystalline Nb metal foils were treated in dilute gas atmospheres using a temperature of 900 °C. Transmission mode X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EX-AFS) at the Nb K-edge was used to investigate changes in the atomic short-range order structure of the bulk Nb-material in-situ. The experiments were performed in a dedicated high-vacuum cell that allows treatments in a dilute gas atmosphere and temperatures of up to 1200 °C. Typical treatments include (i) pre-heating at 900 °C under high-vacuum, (ii) gas exposure at the desired pressure and temperature, and (iii) cooldown to room temperature under vacuum. EXAFS data were collected during the entire procedure with a time resolution of 1 s. For the treatments in N2 at T = 900°C, the data show subtle changes in the Nb-EXAFS, that are compatible with N-doping of the bulk Nb, and the results suggest Nb uptake on octahedral interstitial sites. However, even a small O2-partial pressure leads to distinct oxidation of the Nb. The results will be discussed in more detail in the presentation. |

TUPAB342 | Preliminary Cryogenic Cold Test Results of the First 9-Cell LSF Shape Cavity | cavity, SRF, multipactoring, laser | 2296 |
|
|||
Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. Supplemental support by US-Japan Collaboration on HEP. Following successful prototyping and testing of single- & 5-cell LSF shape cavities *, **, the first 9-cell LSF shape cavity LSF9-1 was successfully constructed using an innovative process at JLab with the in-house facilities. The cavity was then shipped to KEK for post-fabrication mechanical adjustment and ILC TDR style treatment and surface processing. Cold testing was carried out at the JLab VTA facility, instrumented with a suite of Kyoto instruments. Favorable values for the bath pressure detuning sensitivity and Lorentz force detuning coefficient were experimentally measured, validating the design improvement in cell stiffeners. Pass-band measurements indicate 4 out of 9 cells reaching gradient capability of > 45 MV/m, including 2 cells reaching 51 MV/m. Cornell OST detectors identified the cell and location responsible for the current hard quench limit. Multipacting-like barriers observed in end cells are investigated both analytically and numerically. The cavity was shipped to FNAL and received a light EP at the joint ANL/FNAL facility for further cold testing at Jlab. Two new 9-cell LSF cavities are being constructed including one made of large-grain niobium material. * R. L. Geng et al.,WEPWI013, IPAC15. ** R. L. Geng et al., MOP064, SRF’19. |

TUPAB344 | Evaluation of Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) Sensors for a Magnetic Field Scanning System for SRF Cavities | cavity, SRF, experiment, MMI | 2304 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by NSF Grant 100614-010. G. C. is supported by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. One of the significant causes of residual losses in superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities is trapped magnetic flux. The flux trapping mechanism depends on many factors that include cool-down conditions, surface preparation techniques, and ambient magnetic field orientation. Suitable diagnostic tools are not yet available to quantitatively correlate such factors’ effect on the flux trapping mechanism. A magnetic field scanning system (MFSS) consisting of AMR sensors, fluxgate magnetometers, or Hall probes is recently commissioned to scan the local magnetic field of trapped vortices around 1.3 GHz single-cell SRF cavities. In this contribution, we will present results from sensitivity calibration and the first tests of AMR sensors in the MFSS. |

TUPAB400 | Manufacturing of Ceramic Vacuum Chambers for Sirius On-Axis Kicker | vacuum, kicker, HOM, target | 2457 |
|
|||
Ceramic vacuum chambers were produced by LNLS for the Sirius kickers. Alumina tubes with an elliptical inner shape of 9.5 mm (V) x 29 mm (H) and 500 mm long were successfully manufactured by a Brazilian company. Metallic F136 titanium flanges were brazed to Nb inserts using Ag-58.5Cu-31.5Pd wt% alloy, these inserts were brazed to the ceramic using Ag-26.7Cu-4.5Ti wt% active filler metal. A titanium film was coated inside the chamber using argon plasma by RF Magnetron Sputtering technique. Samples have been investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to measure film thickness along the inner section of the tube, coating morphology, chemical composition and homogeneity. The total electrical resistance of the tube was also monitored during the sputtering process to achieve the desired value (0.2 ohms/square). In this contribution, we present the results of an On-Axis kicker manufacturing process developed by LNLS. | |||

WEPAB381 | Multipactor Simulations for MYRRHA Spoke Cavity: Comparison Between SPARK3D, MUSICC3D, CST PIC and Measurement | multipactoring, electron, simulation, cavity | 3606 |
|
|||
The multipactor effect can lead to thermal breakdown (quench), high field emission and limited accelerating gradient in superconducting accelerator devices. To determine the multipactor breakdown power level, multipactor simulations can be performed. The objective of this study is to compare the results given by different simulation codes with the results of vertical testing of SRF cavities. In this paper, Spark3D, MUSICC3D and CST Studio PIC solver have been used to simulate the multipactor effect in Spoke cavity developed within the framework of MYRRHA project. Then, a benchmark of these three simulation codes has been made. The breakdown power level, the multipactor order and the most prominent location of multipactor are presented. Finally, the simulation results are compared with the measurements done during the vertical tests. | |||

THPAB320 | ALD-Based NbTiN Studies for SIS R&D | site, cavity, plasma, SRF | 4420 |
|
|||
Superconductor-Insulator-Superconductor multilayers improve the performance of SRF cavities providing magnetic screening of the bulk cavity and lower surface resistance. In this framework NbTiN mixtures stand as a potential material of interest. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) allows for uniform coating of complex geometries and enables tuning of the stoichiometry and precise thickness control in sub-nm range. In this talk, we report about NbTiN thin films deposited by plasma-enhanced ALD on insulating AlN buffer layer. The deposition process has been optimized by studying the superconducting electrical properties of the films. Post-deposition thermal annealing studies with varying temperatures, annealing times, and gas atmospheres have been performed to further improve the thin film quality and the superconducting properties. Our experimental studies show an increase in Tc by 87.5% after thermal annealing and a maximum Tc of 13.9 K has been achieved for NbTiN of 23 nm thickness. Future steps include lattice characterization, using XRR/XRD/EBSD/PALS, and SRF measurements to obtain Hc1 and the superconducting gap. | |||
