摘要：基于自由电子激光（FEL）的太赫兹源具有高功率、高效率、波谱范围宽且连续可调、波束质量好等显著优点,目前是获得最高输出功率的方法。紧凑型太赫兹源使整体装置小型化,减少了装置成本和占用空间,但依然可以提供高功率、高品质的太赫兹波束,是一种便利可靠的用户装置。由于空间限制,FEL上的磁铁要尽可能地减小其尺寸,并仍能满足束流参数设计要求。本文设计的四极磁铁磁轭孔径与有效长度,其中2块是64mm×100mm,另外3块是45mm×100mm。这些四极磁铁的磁场梯度可以达到0.6-1.9T·m^-1。采用Poisson和Oprra-3D软件进行四极磁铁的二维和三维仿真计算,设计优化四极磁铁的结构,并测量了加工完成后的四极磁铁的磁场。

摘要：To meet the requirements of high performance THz-FEL （Free Electron Laser）, a compact scheme of FEL injector was proposed. A thermionic cathode was chosen to emit electrons instead of a photo-cathode with its complex structure and high cost. The effective bunch charge was improved to ~200 pC by adopting an enhanced EC-ITC （External Cathode Independently Tunable Cells） RF gun to extract micro-bunches; back bombardment effects were almost eliminated as well. Constant gradient accelerator structures were designed to improve energy to ~14 MeV, while the focusing system was applied for emittance suppressing and bunch state maintenance. The physical design and beam dynamics of the key components for the FEL injector were analyzed. Furthermore, start- to-end simulations with multi-pulses were performed using homemade MATLAB and Parmela. The results show that continual high brightness electron bunches with a low energy spread and emittance could be obtained stably.

摘要：An EC-ITC （External-Cathode Independently Tunable Cells） RF gun was employed with the aim of obtaining short-pulse bunches with high peak current for a terahertz radiation source. A gridded DC gun plays a key role as the external injecting electron source of the ITC RF gun, the performance of which determines the beam quality in the injector and transport line. In order to make the beam well compressed in the ITC RF gun, the energy of the electrons acquired from the gridded DC gun should be 15 keV at most. A proper structure of the gridded gun with double-anode is shown to overcome the strong space- charge force on the cathode, which is able to generate 6 μs beam with 4.5 A current successfully.
