Use of Dynamical Undulator Mechanism to Produce Short Wavelength Radiation in Volume FEL (VFEL)

VFEL lasing in system with dynamical undulator is described. In this system radiation of long wavelength creates the undulator for lasing on shorter wavelength. Two diffraction gratings with different spatial periods form VFEL resonator. The grating with longer period pumps the resonator with long wavelength radiation to provide necessary amplitude of undulator field. The grating with shorter period makes mode selection for short wavelength radiation. Lasing of such a system in terahertz frequency range is discussed.

Application of Volume diffraction grating for TeraHertz lasing in Volume FEL (VFEL)

The generation of induced radiation in volume resonator formed by metal threads is considered. It is shown that using of such volume diffraction grating allows increasing of lasing efficiency in terahertz range. The requirements on beam and grating parameters are obtained.

First Lasing of Volume FEL (VFEL) at Wavelength Range $λ\sim $ 4-6 mm

First lasing of volume free electron laser (VFEL) is described. The generating system consists of two metal diffraction grating with different spatial periods. The first grating creates the conditions for Smith Purcell emission mechanism. The second grating provides the distributed feedback for emitted wave. The length of diffraction grating is 10 cm. Electron beam pulse with a time duration $τ\sim$ 10 ms has a sinusoidal form with the amplitude varied from 1 to ~10 kV. The measured microwave power reached the value of about 3-4 W in mm wavelength range. The generation stops at threshold curre…

Dependence of volume FEL (VFEL) threshold conditions on undulator parameters

The idea and principles of volume free electron lasers were proposed in [1-4]. It was shown there that volume distributed feedback (VDFB) can essentially reduce the threshold current of generation and provide the possibility of smooth frequency tuning. The present work considers an undulator VFEL with multiwave VDFB. It is shown that dependence of threshold current on the interaction length changes in the point of roots degeneration. This leads to the sharp decrease of start current if condition of dynamical diffraction is fulfilled. The dependence of amplification coefficient changes, too. So…

Volume free electron lasers

The equations describing the VFEL lasing in case of an electron beam moving either in a split of a diffraction grating or in a vacuum waveguide containing a diffraction grating (vacuum VFEL) have been obtained. The dispersion equation allowing to find the vacuum VFEL gain in one-mode generation regime have been considered. It is shown that the vacuum VFEL amplification and the generation process develop more intensively then in ordinary FEL using one-dimensional distributed feedback. Such the VFEL, if realised, could be made with much more compact device structure compared with the FEL and the…
