Two-Chicane Compressed Harmonic Generation of Soft X-Rays
Ratner, Daniel.
We propose a simple single-stage scheme to produce
fully coherent 3nm radiation. Seeding an electron bunch
prior to compression simultaneously shortens the laser
wavelength and duration, and increases the modulation amplitude.
The final X-ray wavelength is tunable by controlling
the compression factor with the RF phase. We propose
a two chicane scheme that allows for nearly arbitrary
modulation amplitudes, extending the method to photocathode
beams. We also show that transportation of fine

We propose a simple single-stage scheme to produce

The final X-ray wavelength is tunable by controlling
the compression factor with the RF phase. We propose
a two chicane scheme that allows for nearly arbitrary
modulation amplitudes, extending the method to photocathode
beams. We also show that transportation of fine
compressed modulation structure is feasible due to a canceling
effect of the second chicane. Show Partial Abstract
