Operating the Sduv-fel with the Eehg Scheme*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using the recently proposed echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) free-electron laser (FEL) scheme, it is shown that operating the Shanghai deep ultraviolet FEL (SDUV-FEL) with single-stage to higher harmonics is very promising, with higher frequency up-conversion efficiency, higher harmonic selectivity and lower power requirement of the seed laser. The considerations on a proof-of-principle experiment and expected performance in SDUV-FEL are given.

Echo-enabled harmonic generation for seeded FELs
In the x-ray wavelengths, the two leading FEL concepts are the self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) configuration and the high-gain harmonic generation (HGHG) scheme. While the radiation from a SASE FEL is coherent transversely, it typically has rather limited temporal coherence. Alternatively, the HGHG scheme allows generation of fully coherent radiation by up-converting the frequency of...
متن کاملCoherent soft x-ray generation in the water window with the EEHG scheme∗
Recently a scheme entitled echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) was proposed for producing short wavelength FEL radiation that allows far higher harmonic numbers to be accessed as compared with the normal limit arising from incoherent energy spread. In this paper we study the feasibility of a single EEHG stage to generate coherent radiation in the ”water window” (24 nm wavelength) directly f...
متن کاملThe echo-enabled harmonic generation options for FLASH II
FLASH II is an upgrade to the existing free electron laser (FEL) FLASH. The echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) scheme is proposed to be a potential seeding option of FLASH II. In this paper, the possibility of EEHG operation of FLASH II is investigated for the first time. With a combination of existing numerical codes, i.e. a laser-beam interaction code in an undulator (LBICU), a beam trac...
متن کاملEcho-enabled harmonic generation free electron laser
In this paper, we systematically study the echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) free electron laser (FEL). The EEHG FEL uses two modulators in combination with two dispersion sections that allow one to generate in the beam a high harmonic density modulation starting with a relatively small initial energy modulation of the beam. After presenting an analytical theory of the phenomenon, we addr...
متن کاملEEHG-assisted FEL schemes for attosecond X-ray pulses generation
In this paper, the schemes of echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) assisted free electron laser (FEL) for generating attosecond soft X-ray pulses are further investigated. We present brief analytical models and three-dimensional simulations for comparison studies of such schemes reported earlier. Moreover, on the basis of these analyses, a more compact and robust EEHG-assisted FEL scheme is ...
