Abstract |
In a high-brightness injector of the Compact ERL (cERL), a 1.3-GHz buncher cavity is used to compress the electron bunches which are produced at a 500-kV photocathode DC electron gun. An rf voltage required is about 130 kV. To elongate the lifetime of the photocathode of the DC gun which is located beside the buncher cavity, an extremely-low pressure of about 10⁻⁹ Pa is required in the buncher cavity under operating conditions. In order to achieve such low pressures, we have developed a normal-conducting cavity which included several measures to reduce the outgas from the cavity components, together with careful rf designs to avoid any problems due to multipactor discharges or to other problems. With the developed cavity, we achieved a vacuum pressure of about 2·10⁻⁹ Pa under rf operations at an rf voltage of about 100 kV. The buncher cavity was installed in the cERL, and it worked very well; we could demonstrate to compress the bunch length from 10 ps (FWHM) to 0.5 ps (rms) using the buncher cavity.
