MOIOB02 | Towards a 100mA Superconducting RF Photoinjector for BERLinPro | 42 |
|
||
For BERLinPro, a 100 mA CW-driven SRF energy recovery linac demonstrator facility, HZB needs to develop a photo-injector superconducting cavity which delivers a at least 1mm*mr emittance beam at high average current. To address these challenges of producing a high peak brightness beam at high repetition rate, at first HZB tested a fully superconducting injector with a lead cathode*,followed now by the design of a SC cavity allowing operation up to 4 mA using CW-modified TTF-III couplers and inserting a normal conducting high quantum efficiency cathode using the HZDR-style insert scheme. This talk will present the latest results and an overview of the measurements with the lead cathode cavity and will describe the design and optimization process, the first production results of the current design and an outlook to the further development steps towards the full power version.

Funding: European Community-Research Infrastructure Activity under the FP7 program (EuCARD, contract number 227579), German Federal Ministry of Education and Research grant 05 ES4BR1/8 A lot of the future electron accelerator projects such like ERLs, high power FELs and also some of the new collider designs rely on the development of particle sources which provide them with high average beam currents at high repetition rates, while maintaining a low emittance. SRF photo injectors represent a promising concept to give just that, offering the option of a continuous wave operation with high bunch charges. Nevertheless, emittance compensation for these electron guns, with the goal to reach the same level as normal conducting sources, is an ongoing challenge. The poster is going to discuss several approaches for the 3-1/2-cell SRF gun installed at the accelerator facility ELBE at the Helmholtz Center Dresden-Rossendorf including the installation of a superconducting solenoid within the injector’s cryostat and present the currently used method to determine the beam’s phase space. |
