We are developing input couplers for ERL main linacs. Two couplers for cERL have been fabricated and high power test was carried out. A klystron was used for RF power source. The power was increased with a pulse mode of 10 usec with and 5 Hz repetition and reached to 100 kW. The average input power was increased by increasing the pulse width and repetition and finally reached 40 kW of CW mode.

We are developing ERL main linac input coupler. Until now, prototypes of ceramic windows were created and performances were tested. Using this ceramic window, we produced a coupler prototype model. The coupler prototype was installed into an insulating vacuum chamber and cooled by liquid nitrogen, and the high power test was performed. This is the condition, where the coupler is actually used in a cryomodule. In this test, we were able to input 25 kW power. It was checked that the magnitude of generation of heat is also satisfactory. It was checked that this coupler fulfills the specification demanded from ERL main linac.

We fabricated the prototype of an input coupler with two ceramic windows for ERL main linac and performed the high power test. In high power test, the one cold window was installed into the vacuum insulating chamber and cooled by liquid nitrogen. First, the multipacting limited the power level to 10 kW. The pulse processing method for 8 hours enabled the final power level to 25 kW with standing wave condition. We could also keep 20 kW power feeding into the coupler for 16 hours. The maximum measured temperature rises under feeding the 20 kW power to coupler were 120 K near the bellows parts and these are not so severe values to operate ERL main linac. The thermal cycle test of cold window of coupler was done. After 10-times thermal cycle tests between the room temperature and liquid nitrogen temperature, no leaks or cracks were observed. From these results of high power test, this prototype coupler satisfies our thermal and RF requirements.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:19.86(Instruments & Instrumentation)Energy-recovery linacs (ERLs) are in operation and under development in the world for future lightsources, which cover a wide range of photon energy, from THz to -rays, by using various kinds of photo-emission processes, undulator radiation, free-electron lasers, laser Compton scattering (LCS), and coherent radiation. Availability of ultra-short electron beams is an essential feature of ERLs for future light sources. In this paper, we provide an overview of the generation and applications of ultra-short electron beams in ERLs. Magnetic bunch compression and velocity bunching are the two schemes of ultra-short electron beam generation that are presented with the Compact ERL test facility as an example.

We started to develop an input power coupler for a 1.3 GHz ERL superconducting cavity for main linac. We fabricated power coupler components such as ceramic windows and bellows and carried out the high-power test of the components by using a CW 30 kW IOT power source. During this test, the ceramic window was broken by the sudden heat load. We found that this heat load occurred by the unexpected dipole mode. We renewed the ceramic window and successfully carried out the high power test up to CW 27 kW input power.

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting R&D efforts for that. We are developing high-brightness DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting (SC) linacs, and 1.3 GHz high CW-power RF sources. We are also constructing the Compact ERL (cERL) for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using above-mentioned critical technologies.

We started to develop an input coupler for a 1.3 GHz ERL superconducting cavity. Required input power is about 20 kW for the cavity acceleration field of 20 MV/m and the beam current of 100 mA in energy recovery operation. The input coupler is designed based on the STF-BL input coupler and some modifications are applied to the design for the CW 20 kW power operation. We fabricated input coupler components such as ceramic windows and bellows and carried out the high-power test of the components by using a 30 kW IOT power source and a test stand constructed for the high-power test. In this report, we mainly describe the results of the high-power test of ceramic window and bellows.

Tolerance study on RF amplitude and phase of main accelerating cavities and injection timing was performed for the compact ERL with a simulation code "elegant". As a result, it was found that errors of the RF amplitude and phase should be controlled within 0.01% and 0.01 deg. in rms to satisfy requirements for the arrival time and the bunch length at the exit of the 1st arc section in bunch-compression mode. In high-current and low-emittance modes, these control errors can be relaxed to 0.1% and 0.1deg. The injection timing error is allowed up to at least 200 fs, which does not deteriorate the beam quality at the exit of the 1st arc section in all the operation modes.

An energy recovery linac (ERL) is expected to be the next generation synchrotron radiation source that can provide synchrotron radiation of higher brilliance, shorter pulse and higher coherence than the existing third-generation synchrotron light sources. The compact ERL is planned to be constructed in order to solve some problems in achievement of such synchrotron radiation and to confirm advantages of ERLs. We studied and optimized the compact ERL optics to achieve subpico-second bunch generation and efficient energy recovery and to transport the beam to the beam dump without serious beam loss. The design study of the compact ERL optics was done by using the simulation code Elegant. As a result, we succeeded in obtaining a 40-fs bunch with a charge of 77 pC just after the first TBA cell. Furthermore we could suppress the maximum beam size to less than 8.5 mm even after deceleration.
