TU202 | Gradient Yield Improvement Efforts for Single and Multi-Cells And Progress for Very High Gradient Cavities | 82 |
| | |
| ILC cavity specification was fixed at the ILC
Snowmass workshop 2005. However, after the workshop
DESY developed a low production yield problem on the
TTF cavities. GDE R&D board has built a task force to
solve the problem. This task force proposed S0/S1 studies
and accepted by GDE. DESY has nearly demonstrated the
35MV/m high gradient module, even the gradient yield is
still low. The other major laboratories, FNAL, JLAB and
KEK also started the R&D. S0 study has started in JLAB.
STF activity has stated in KEK. In these activities, 9-cell
cavity result is accumulated. S0 single cell program has
been started and very promising recipe has been
developed. We have a remarkable improvement with high
gradient in these two years. High gradient shapes: Low
loss or Re-entrant has brought a breakthrough. Now the
world record is 60MV/m. In this paper these worldwide
activities are presented. | |

| We have continued the series tests of single cell
superconducting cavities at KEK. These tests are aimed at
establishing a high yield production of surface treatment
that would reliably allow cavities to reach gradients in
excess of 45 MV/m with high Q in vertical tests. The
cavity shape is all of the KEK Low Loss design. Early
results from this series test demonstrated that reaching
gradients as high as 50 MV/m was feasible. However, the
initial yield was of order 50 %. In order to increase the
yield we have modified our surface preparation followed
an established KEK procedure (KEK-WG5 recipe). We
have succeeded to reach the >95 % yield with gradient of
> 45 MV/m. | |

| High gradient superconducting RF cavity named Ichiro
type in KEK is developing as the Alternatives
Configuration Document for the international linear
collider. Multipacting is one of the most serious
limitations to achieve high gradient. Several simulation
research found out that multipacting at the tapered beam
pipe is too strong. We investigated multipacting effects in
various end cavities with beam tube and compared with
experiments. | |

| We are constructing Superconducting RF Test Facility
(STF) at KEK for the R&D of ILC accelerator. In the
beginning of year 2007, we installed one TESLA-like 9-
cell cavity and one high-gradient Low-Loss (LL) type 9-
cell cavity into cryomodules at STF. For the LL 9-cell
cavity, an Capacitive-Coupling (CC) input-coupler, a ballscrew
tuner and other peripherals were assembled with
the cavity. The assembled cavity package was installed
with thermal shields and so on into a cryomodule. After
the installation, we performed the first processing of
Capacitive-Coupling (CC) input-coupler in a cryomodule
at the room-temperature. We achieved the power of 250
kW with the pulse-width of 1.5 msec at the repetition rate
of 5 pps. This presentation describes about the assembly
of a CC coupler and a high-gradient LL 9-cell cavity in a
clean room and the processing of the CC coupler at the
room temperature in a cryomodule. | |

| High pressure rinsing (HPR) is a key process for the
surface preparation of high field superconducting cavities.
HPR water jets used in different laboratories have been
characterized measuring the transferred momentum
between the water jet and a target connected to a load cell.
The information taken during these measurements,
combined with HPR process parameters, allow
calculating new significant measurable variables such as
the jet power, the deposited energy on the cavity surfaces
and the pressure. | |

| The large efforts have been concentrated on Nb
cavities for International Linear Collider (ILC). The
maximum accelerating field gradient of Nb cavities is
limited about 50 MV/m due to Hcsh. MgB2 (MgB2) have
higher Tc than Nb and expected to have higher Hcsh. Thin
films of MgB2 on Nb is useful to increase future ILC
energy upgrading.
At KEK, the preliminary test of thin films on Nb by
Pulse Laser Deposition(PLD) method have been started
and initially the direct deposition of MgB2 film on Nb
discs and single cell cavity was studied. | |
