Interstitial diffusion of atomic species into the surface of niobium has been found to yield significantly reduced srf surface resistance and lowered quench fields. This talk summarizes systematic efforts to explore the trade-offs of these phenomena with a goal of learning how to maximize Q0 in the 30 MV/m regime.

Here we give an overview of these activities, and present results from single-cell studies, from vertical performance testing of nitrogen-doped nine-cell cavities, and from cryomodule testing of nitrogen-doped nine-cell cavities.

	We have performed detailed studies using DC and AC magnetometry and electrical resistivity measurements of niobium samples prepared using different nitrogen doping recipes. We compare the results to the samples prepared by standard preparation techniques such as EP with and without additional 120C baking to get insight into driving factors of the lowered quench field in N-doped SRF cavities.

The ”Linac Coherent Light Source-II” Project will construct a 4 GeV CW superconducting RF linac in the first kilometer of the existing SLAC linac tunnel. The baseline design calls for 280 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavities with an average intrinsic quality factor Q0 of 2.7·10¹⁰ at 2K and 16 MV/m accelerating gradient. The LCLS-II high Q0 cavity treatment protocol utilizes the reduction in BCS surface resistance by nitrogen doping of the RF surface layer, which was discovered originally at FNAL. Cornell University, FNAL, and TJNAF conducted a joint high Q0 R&D program with the goal of (a) exploring the robustness of the N-doping technique and establishing the LCLS-II cavity high Q0 processing protocol suitable for production use, and (b) demonstrating that this process can reliably achieve LCLS-II cavity specification in a production acceptance testing setting. In this paper we describe the LCLS-II cavity protocol and analyze combined cavity performance data from both vertical and horizontal testing at the three partner labs, which clearly shows that LCLS-II specifications were met, and thus demonstrates readiness for LCLS-II cavity production.

MOPB035	Nature and Implication of Found Actual Particulates on the Inner Surface of Cavities in a Full-Scale Cryomodule Previously Operated With Beams	164
	R.L. Geng, J.F. Fischer, E.A. McEwen, O. Trofimova JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	Field emission in an SRF cavity is often the result of small foreign particulates lodging on the cavity inner surface. To avoid these particulate field emitters, careful cleaning and handling of individual cavities and clean room assembly of cavity strings are common practice. Despite these elaborate processes, some particulates persist to stay on the final surface of a beam-ready cavity. Moreover, as will be shown in this contribution, new particulates accumulate after a cryomodule is placed in the accelerator tunnel. The nature of these accumulated particulates on the inner surface of a beam-accelerating cavity is largely unknown for two reasons: (1) lack of access to such surfaces; (2) lack of a workable procedure for investigation without destroying the cavity. In this contribution, we report the first study on found actual particulates on the inner surface of 5-cell CEBAF cavities in a full-scale cryomodule previously operated with beam. The nature of the studied particulates is presented. The implication of the findings will be discussed in view of reliable and efficient operation of CEBAF and future large-scale SRF accelerators.

MOPB036	TOF-SIMS Study of Nitrogen Doping Niobium Samples	169
	Z.Q. Yang, L. Lin, X.Y. Lu, W.W. Tan, D.Y. Yang, J. Zhao PKU, Beijing, People's Republic of China
	Nitrogen doping treatment with the subsequent electropolishing (EP) of the niobium superconducting cavity can significantly increase the cavity’s quality factor up to a factor of 3. The nitrogen doping experiment has been successfully repeated and demonstrated. But the mechanism of the nitrogen doping effect remains unclear. Nitrogen doping study on niobium samples was carried out in Peking University. The niobium samples were manual processed to avoid heat generation. The experiment condition is close to that of the Fermilab. After the nitrogen doping treatment, the samples were mildly electropolished with the thickness of 1.3μm, 1.9μm, 3.3μm, 4.2μm, 5.1μm, 5.9μm and 7.0μm. The time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) measurements show that the samples directly after nitrogen doping have a much higher nitrogen concentration in the depth of about 90nm. When the EP removal is larger than 1.3μm, the samples’ impurity elements is remarkably reduced and their distribution is similar to each other. Also the measured results to some extent prove that EP removal can introduce H to the niobium surface.

MOPB039	Analysis of BCS RF Loss Dependence on N-Doping Protocols	174
	A.D. Palczewski, P. Dhakal, C.E. Reece JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA

We present a study on two parallel-path SRF cavities (one large grain and one fine grain, 1.3 GHz) which seeks to explain the correlation between the amount of nitrogen on the inner surface of a “nitrogen doped” SRF cavity and the change in the temperature dependant (packaged into term BCS) RF losses. For each doping/EP, the cavities were tested at multiple temperatures (2.0 K to 1.5 K in 0.1 K steps) to create a Q0 vs. Eacc vs. T matrix which then could be used to extract temperature dependant and independent components. After each test, the cavities were thermally cycled to 120 K and then re-cooled and retested to assess if evidence of hydrogen migration might appear even at a small level. In addition, TD-5 was also tested at fixed low field (Q0 vs. T) to fit standard BCS theory. In parallel, SIMS data was taken on like-treated samples to correlate the amount of nitrogen within the RF surface to the change in the temperature dependant fitting parameter “A”.** [] H.Tian et al., contributed to SRF2015.

	Funding: DOE and the LCLS-II High Q Project The Linac Coherent Light Source-II (LCLS-II) is a new FEL x-ray source that is planned to be constructed in the existing SLAC tunnel. In order to meet the required high Q0 specification of 2.7x10¹⁰ at 2 K and 16 MV/m, nitrogen-doping has been proposed as a preparation method for the SRF cavities in the linac. In order to test the feasibility of these goals, four nitrogen-doped cavities have been tested at Cornell in the Horizontal Test Cryomodule (HTC) in five separate tests. The first three tests consisted of cavities assembled in the HTC with high Q input coupler. The fourth test used the same cavity as the third but with the prototype high power LCLS-II coupler installed. Finally, the fifth test used a high power LCLS-II coupler, cavity tuner, and HOM antennas. Here we report on the results from these tests along with a systematic analysis of change in performance due to the various steps in preparing and assembling LCLS-II cavities for cryomodule operation. These results represent one of the final steps to demonstrate readiness for full prototype cryomodule assembly for LCLS-II.

	Funding: NSF Recently, doping with nitrogen has been demonstrated to help SRF cavities reach significantly higher intrinsic quality factors than with standard procedures. However, the quench fields of these cavities have also been shown to be frequently reduced. Here we report on fundamental studies of doped cavities, investigating the source of reduced quench field and exploring alternative dopants. We have focused on studying the quench of nitrogen-doped cavities with temperature mapping and measurements of the flux penetration field using pulsed power to investigate maximum fields in nitrogen doped cavities. We also report on studies of cavities doped with other gases such as helium. These studies have enabled us to shed light on the mechanisms behind the higher Q and lower quench fields that have been observed in cavities doped with impurities.
