Funding: This work is partly supported by Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (c) 21604017. The diamond-based beam halo monitor has been developed for SPring-8 Angstrom Compact free electron LAser (SACLA). This monitor is an interlock sensor to protect the undulator magnets against radiation damage. Pulse-mode measurement is adopted to suppress the background noise efficiently. The diamond detectors are dipped into the beam duct in order that the intensity of the beam halo can be measured directly. However, it is important issue to avoid degradation in quality of electron beam for SPring-8 XFEL. We designed new RF fingers with aluminum windows in order to reduce the impedance to the beam. The RF fingers are made of beryllium copper, and having the aluminum windows, which is low-Z material, in front of active areas of the diamond detectors. Therefore, the influence of secondary electrons and bremsstrahlung from the finger material can be suppressed. To evaluate influence on the output signal of the diamond detector by changing the finger material, both the simulation study and the experimental measurement have been carried out. Feasibility tests of this monitor, which is equipped with the RF fingers, have also been demonstrated at the SCSS test accelerator. |

Pulse-by-pulse measurement of X-ray beam is import issue for the 3rd generation light sources in order not only to stabilize X-ray beam in an experimental hutch but also to diagnose electron beam in a storage ring. A new pulse-by-pulse X-ray beam monitor equipped with microstripline structure has been developed. The detector head has the microstripline structure. The impedance of the detector head is matched to 50 ohm. Thermodynamics of the detector head is also well considered against severe heat load. The advantage of this monitor is that output signal is short and unipolar pulse, so front-end electronics can be simplified. The feasibility tests have been demonstrated at the X-ray beamline of SPring-8 in the term of (1) pulse intensity monitor, (2) pulse-by-pulse X-ray beam position monitor, and (3) the pulse-timing monitor. Then, we have improved the structure of the detector head in order to sophisticate the function as the pulse timing monitor. As a result, we successfully removed the ringing parts of output signal, and demonstrated that this monitor can be used as the timing monitor. We also describe a new scheme for beam diagnostics using this monitor. | ||
