Development for a supercompact X -band pulse compression system and its application at SLAC

Abstract: We have successfully designed, fabricated, installed, and tested a super compact X-band SLAC Energy Doubler system at SLAC. It is composed of an elegant 3 dB coupler-mode converter-polarizer coupled to a single spherical energy storage cavity with high Q 0 of 94000 and a diameter less than 12 cm. The available rf peak power of 50 MW can be compressed to a peak average power of more than 200 MW in order to double the kick for the electron bunches in a rf transverse deflector system and greatly improve the measu… Show more

“…However, we are not restricted to geometries useful for particle acceleration. Quality factors of Q int ∼ 10 5 are commonly achieved in overmoded non-superconducting RF cavities with non-accelerator geometries [53][54][55]. This suggests that SRF counterparts can be constructed with quality factors as large as Q int ∼ 10 12 .…”

“…This implies that the resolution of the present bunch shape measurement technique would be no better than ∼0.1 ps. We note, on the other hand, that the active deflectors based on X-band klystron system have reached approximately femtosecond-level temporal resolutions [27,28].…”

“…Recent innovations in RF compressor cavity design have enabled a dramatic reduction in the system footprint while maintaining the capability to produce 6-fold pulse compression and isolate the source from the reflected RF signal from the cavities. [85,86] For cryogenic copper structures, cavity designs will need to achieve high intrinsic quality factors, 𝑄 0 up to 400,000, and high coupling factors, 𝛽 up to 10. Active research in this area will continue to benefit the broader accelerator community that relies on pulse compressors to supply the peak powers needed for high gradient operation.…”
