AB - Since a laser-driven dielectric accelerator (LDA) is most likely to deliver a nano-beam with a small scale device, a combination of the LDA and a biological cell observation device such as a fluorescence microscope seems to be a powerful tool for radiation biology researches. The LDA consists of single or a pair of binary-blazed transmission grating. In case of normal incidence, a grating constant must be the same with a laser wavelength to synchronize with the electron and an acceleration field. Although demonstration experiments have been published from SLAC and MPQ, there are many problems to be solved, especially in the non-relativistic energy region. A crucial problem is to make it clear whether electrons are accelerated with negligibly small wiggling or lateral shift. We are simulating at various conditions with the aid of CST-code. We also analyze an oblique incidence (OI) scheme for the efficient acceleration of slow electron. The OI-scheme enables to use the grating of larger grating constant. Adoption of the large grating constant makes it easy to fabricate the grating. Besides analytical works, we are making gratings and developing an Yb-doped fiber laser for the acceleration experiment. Gratings of two different materials, a glass silica and crystal silica, were fabricated by the e-beam lithography technique.
