Overview of NLC X-Band Technology
and
Applications Including a Compact XFEL
Chris Adolphsen
SLAC
X-Band (11.4 GHz) RF Technology
Chose X-Band technology as an evolutionary next step for the Next Linear
Collider (NLC) from the SLAC Linac S-Band (2.86 GHz) technology.
In general want higher rf frequency because:
- Less rf energy per pulse is required, so fewer/smaller rf components.
- Higher gradients achievable, so shorter linacs (with reasonable efficiencies)
Offsetting these advantages are the requirements of:
- High power (100’s MW) HV pulses with fast rise times (100’s ns).
- High surface gradients in the klystrons, waveguide transport system and
accelerator structures.
- Tight alignment tolerances due to stronger wakefields (much less an issue
for light sources where the bunch charge is low, and bunch length short).

NLC/GLC Linac RF Unit
(One of ~ 2000 at 500 GeV cms, One of ~ 4000 at 1 TeV cm)
Next Linear Collider Test Accelerator (NLCTA)
In 1993, construction began
using first generation X-Band
components.
In 1997, demonstrated 17%
beam loading compensation
in four, 1.8 m structures at
~ 40 MV/m.
In 1998-99, added second
klystron to each linac rf
station.
In 2000-10, used for high
gradient studies and other
programs.

Four tubes tested at
75 MW with

Efficiency = 53-56%.
SLAC
Two tubes tested at
75 MW with
1.6 ms pulses at
120 Hz.
Efficiency = 53-54%.
• At 75 MW, iris surface field ~ 70 MV/m,
lower than in 3% vg structures, but higher
than sustainable (~ 50 MV/m) in
waveguide with comparable vg (~ 20%)
as the klystron TW output structures.
• May require multi-beam klystron
approach for stable > 50 MW, 1.6 ms
operation.

NLC Accelerator Structure Requirements
Convert rf energy to beam energy efficiently.
Short-range transverse wakefields small to limit linac emittance
growth: iris radius limited to 17% of rf wavelength (i.e. a/l = 17%).
Long-range wakefields suppressed so bunch train effectively acts as
a single bunch.
Dipole mode power coupled out for use as guide for centering the
beam in the structure.
Operate reliably at the design gradient and pulse length.
NLC/GLC Structures were developed by a FNAL/KEK/SLAC collaboration –
CERN/KEK/SLAC now developing 11%-13% a/l structures that run at ~ 100 MV/m
High Gradient Structure Development
Since 1999:
-
Tested about 40 structures with over
30,000 hours of high power operation at
NLCTA.
-
Improved structure preparation procedures -
includes various heat treatments and
avoidance of high rf surface currents.
-
Found lower input power structures to be
more robust against rf breakdown induced
damage.
-
Developed NLC-Ready ‘H60’ design with
required wakefield suppression features.

Single Bunch Wake Tolerances
• In both Linac-2 and Linac-3, short-range transverse wakefields in H60
are not a major issue in that:
- An injection jitter equal to the beam size yields a 1% emittance
growth in Linac-2 and .003% growth in Linac-3
- Random misalignments of 1 mm rms, assuming 50 structures in
each linac, yields an emittance growth of 1% in Linac-2, 0.1% in
Linac-3.
• With the T53 structure, the jitter and misalignment tolerances are
about three times smaller for the same emittance growth.
• The wake effect is weak mainly because the bunches are very short.
X-Band Revival
•
The 15 year, ~ 100 M$ development of X-band technology for a linear
collider produced a suite of robust, high power components.
•
With the low bunch charge being considered for future XFELs, X-band
technology affords a low cost, compact means of generating multi-GeV,
low emittance bunches.
– Gradients of 70-100 MV/m possible vs ~ 25 MV/m at S-Band and
~ 35 MV/m at C-Band
•
The number of XFELs is likely to continue to grow (e.g., normal
conducting linacs being considered in Korea and China).
•
To expand X-band use, need to have components industrialized and a
small demonstration accelerator built, such as the 150 MeV C-band linac
at Spring-8 in Japan where they have done light source studies.
