COMPARISON BETWEEN FEL AND CYCLOTRON RADIATION

In general,in free electron lasers there are two kinds of stimulated radiations:FELradiation and cyclotron radiation.This paper chows theoretically that if the initial transversevelocity of electron beam is large and the selected parameters for FEL are not suitable,thecyclotron radiation will be dominant,especially when the energy of electron beam is low.But thecyclotron radiation does not have double Doppler frequency upshift effect,its frequency is limitedby axial megnetic field,and when the energy of electron beam is high,the cyclotron radiationfrequency will be much lower than FEL radiation frequency.Therefore,in FEL experimentshow to distinguish these two kinds of radiations and to suppress the cyclotron radiation are veryimportant.     

Experimental and theoretical study of periodic intensity bursts inthe start-up phase of a free-electron laser oscillator

Experimental observations and a theoretical analysis of periodic radiation bursts and macropulse formation in the startup phase of a free-electron laser (FEL) oscillator are presented. This microwave FEL uses a long pulse electron beam with a slowly decaying voltage. The output radiation consists of a superposition of bell-shaped macropulses, each of which is composed of a periodic sequence of short micropulses. The micropulses are separated by a cavity round-trip time. Each bell-shaped macropulse has a random startup time and amplitude. The startup of the radiation macropulses is correlated with random current spikes on the continuous electron beam. The observed macropulse signal agrees with a theoretical calculation of the impulse response of the FEL oscillator when the shift in the FEL resonance frequency arising from the slow voltage drop of the electron beam is included in the analysis. Possible applications of the macropulse formation phenomena in the FEL are discussed     

Electrostatic electron cyclotron resonance maser with slotted coaxial waveguide

A new scheme of the electrostatic electron cyclotron resonance maser with slotted coaxial waveguide is presented here. Having studied it both in the linear and non linear regimes, we found that the radiation frequency and the converting efficiency could be increased largely for the low-energy electron beam in this scheme. The maximum converting efficiency of electrons with the π azimuthal mode can reach 23%. It has been revealed that there exist azimuthal and radical electron benching phenomena, corresponding to the kinetic and potential energy converting processes of electrons with the RF field. This revelation is helpful when looking into the physics of the electrostatic electron cyclotron resonance masers and other kinds of microwave devices with an electrostatic centrifugal field     

Spontaneous emission and gain in a waveguide free-electron laser

A free-electron laser (FEL) enclosed in a waveguide of narrowly spaced parallel plates has been proposed as a compact, coherent source of far-infrared radiation. The spontaneous emission and small-signal gain of such a device are analyzed. Maxwell's equations are solved for the fields of a relativistic electron beam passing through a linearly polarized undulator in the presence of a parallel-plane waveguide. The radiation intensity is resolved into its component waveguide modes for the fundamental frequency and for all harmonics. The intensity profile in a given harmonic mode is altered significantly when a parameter involving the undulator period, beam energy, and transverse dimension of the guide is such that the radiation group velocity is close to the electrons' axial velocity. The small-signal gain in the waveguide FEL is calculated and related to the spontaneous emission. Near zero slip, the gain curve is significantly different from that of a free-space FEL with the same parameters     

Generation of Intense Narrow-Band Tunable Terahertz Radiation from Highly Bunched Electron Pulse Train

We present the analysis and start-to-end simulation of an intense narrow-band terahertz (THz) source with a broad tuning range of radiation frequency, using a single-pass free electron laser (FEL) driven by a THz-pulse-train photoinjector. The fundamental radiation frequency, corresponding to the spacing between the electron microbunches, can be easily tuned by varying the spacing time between the laser micropulses. Since the prebunched electron beam is highly bunched at the first several harmonics, with the harmonic generation technique, the radiation frequency range can be further enlarged by several times. The start-to-end simulation results show that this FEL is capable of generating a few tens megawatts power, several tens micro-joules pulse energy, and a few percent bandwidth at the frequencies of 0.5–5 THz. In addition, several practical issues are considered.

Three dimensional gain analysis of free electron laser with focusing permanent magnet wiggler

A three dimensional simulation software system developed to estimate a free electron laser (FEL) gain has been applied to FEL using a standard plane polarized wiggler and an alternately shifted magnet wiggler. It is seen for the latter wiggler that a large filling factor could be selected and each maximum gain corresponding to each orbit of electron beam concentrates at a certain frequency region of FEL radiation. It is, therefore, implied that a proper shift between the adjacent magnets in the wiggler produces the improvement of the FEL gain.
