Quantum efficiency (QE), intrinsic emittance, and robustness are the three most important figures of merit for photocathodes, the first two determine the ultimate achievable brightness of an electron beam, and the third one directly correlates with the complications of a beamline design. Nitrogen-incorporated ultrananocrystalline diamond [(N)UNCD] materials are promising candidates for photocathode applications due to their remarkable electron emission performance as well as the moderate vacuum requirement. Two (N)UNCD photocathodes have been characterized in a realistic RF gun environment with the nicely balanced performance of all three figures of merit. The QE of the first (N)UNCD cathode (stored in air for two years before the test) was found to be 3.8 × 10
−4 using a 262 nm UV laser and a cathode surface field of 30 MV/m. It was found that the QE of the second (N)UNCD sample (grown days before the test) was nearly the same and, therefore, demonstrates the exceptional environmental tolerance of the material. The intrinsic emittance of (N)UNCD was measured to be 1.00 μm/mm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Diamond field-emitter arrays (DFEAs) are arrays of diamond pyramids with exquisitely sharp tips and micrometer-scale bases that produce high current densities. These arrays can be fabricated in arbitrary shapes, ranging from single tips to many millions of tips, so that they produce an inherently shaped electron beam. Each tip emits a modest current, but the large dense array can produce many Amps. We are investigating these cathodes for use in dielectric wakefield accelerators; however, they may also be applicable to vacuum microwave tubes. Recently, shaped beam production and transport have been demonstrated in the 1.3-GHz RF gun at the Argonne Cathode Test Stand at the Argonne National Laboratory. The charge was measured on a Faraday cup and the beam imaged on a YAG screen with peak electric field gradients on the cathode ranging from 12 to 35 MV/m. Three cathode geometries were tested: one 1-mm equilateral triangle with 7- $\mu \text{m}$ base pyramids and 10- $\mu \text{m}$ pitch, one 1-mm equilateral triangle with 10- $\mu \text{m}$ base and 25- $\mu \text{m}$ pitch, and one sparse $5\times 5$ square array with 20- $\mu \text{m}$ base and 400- $\mu \text{m}$ pitch. The two triangular arrays emitted 35 nC in an RF macropulse at 35 MV/m and 13-nC charge at 27 MV/m, respectively, while the sparse array emitted 0.060-nC charge at 15 MV/m. This article presents the results of the triangular array experiments, including damage due to breakdown in the RF gun and initial models of tip-to-tip shielding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
We present an experimental study of coherent high-power wakefield generation in a metamaterial (MTM) structure at 11.7 GHz by 65 MeV electron bunch trains at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA), following a previous experiment, the Stage-I experiment, at the AWA. Both the Stage-II experiment, reported in this paper, and the Stage-I experiment were conducted using MTM structures, which are all-metal periodic structures with the period being much smaller than the wavelength. Differences between the two experiments include (1) structure length (Stage-I 8 cm and Stage-II 20 cm); (2) number of bunches used to excite the structure (Stage-I with two bunches, up to 85 nC of total charge; Stage-II with eight bunches, up to 224 nC of total charge); and (3) highest peak power measured (Stage-I 80 MW in a 2 ns pulse and Stage-II 380 MW in a 10 ns pulse). High-power radio frequency pulses were generated by reversed Cherenkov radiation of the electron beam due to the negative group velocity in the MTM structures. Because the radiation is coherent, a train of bunches with a proper spacing can build up to achieve a high peak power. The observed output power levels are very promising for future applications in direct collinear wakefield acceleration or in transfer to a second accelerator for two-beam acceleration.

Field emission from a solid metal surface has been continuously studied for a century over macroscopic to atomic scales. It is general knowledge that, other than the surface properties, the emitted current is governed solely by the applied electric field. A pin cathode has been used to study the dependence of field emission on stored energy in an L-band rf gun. The stored energy was changed by adjusting the axial position (distance between the cathode base and the gun back surface) of the cathode while the applied electric field on the cathode tip is kept constant. A very strong correlation of the field-emission current with the stored energy has been observed. While eliminating all possible interfering sources, an enhancement of the current by a factor of 5 was obtained as the stored energy was increased by a factor of 3. It implies that under certain circumstances a localized field emission may be significantly altered by the global parameters in a system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

MAGNETIC crystals , *DIRAC function , *PHOTONIC crystals - Abstract
We demonstrate, theoretically and experimentally, that a traveling electric charge passing from one photonic crystal into another generates edge waves--electromagnetic modes with frequencies inside the common photonic band gap localized at the interface--via a process of transition edge-wave radiation (TER). A simple and intuitive expression for the TER spectral density is derived and then applied to a specific structure: two interfacing photonic topological insulators with opposite spin-Chern indices. We show that TER breaks the time-reversal symmetry and enables valley- and spin-polarized generation of topologically protected edge waves propagating in one or both directions along the interface. Experimental measurements at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator Facility are consistent with the excitation and localization of the edge waves. The concept of TER paves the way for novel particle accelerators and detectors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

CHERENKOV radiation , *METAMATERIALS , *PARTICLE beam bunching - Abstract
We present the first demonstration of high-power, reversed-Cherenkov wakefield radiation by electron bunches passing through a metamaterial structure. The structure supports a fundamental transverse magnetic mode with a negative group velocity leading to reversed-Cherenkov radiation, which was clearly verified in the experiments. Single 45 nC electron bunches of 65 MeV traversing the structure generated up to 25 MW in 2 ns pulses at 11.4 GHz, in excellent agreement with theory. Two bunches of 85 nC with appropriate temporal spacing generated up to 80 MW by coherent wakefield superposition, the highest rf power that metamaterial structures ever experienced without damage. These results demonstrate the unique features of metamaterial structures that are very attractive for future high-gradient wakefield accelerators, including two-beam and collinear accelerators. Advantages include the high shunt impedance for high-power generation and high-gradient acceleration, the simple and rugged structure, and a large parameter space for optimization.

DARK currents (Electric) , *PHOTOCATHODES , *ELECTRON field emission - Abstract
Undesirable electron field emission (also known as dark current) in high gradient rf photocathode guns deteriorates the quality of the photoemission current and limits the operational gradient. To improve the understanding of dark current emission, a high-resolution (~100 μm) dark current imaging experiment has been performed in an L-band photocathode gun operating at ~100 MV/m of surface gradient. Scattered strong emission areas with high current have been observed on the cathode. The field enhancement factor β of selected regions on the cathode has been measured. The postexaminations with scanning electron microscopy and white light interferometry reveal the origins of ~75% strong emission areas overlap with the spots where rf breakdown has occurred.

PHOTONIC band gap structures , *PARTICLE accelerators , *TRAVELING waves (Physics) - Abstract
We report experimental observation of higher order mode (HOM) wakefield suppression in a room-temperature traveling-wave photonic-band-gap (PBG) accelerating structure at 11.700 GHz. It has been long recognized that PBG structures have the potential for reducing long-range wakefields in accelerators. The first ever demonstration of acceleration in a room-temperature PBG structure was conducted in 2005. Since then, the importance of PBG accelerator research has been recognized by many institutions. However, the full experimental characterization of the wakefield spectrum and demonstration of wakefield suppression when the accelerating structure is excited by an electron beam has not been performed to date. We conducted an experiment at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator test facility and observed wakefields excited by a single high charge electron bunch when it passes through a PBG accelerator structure. Excellent HOM suppression properties of the PBG accelerator were demonstrated in the beam test. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Many of the most significant advances in accelerator science have been due to improvements in our ability to manipulate beam phase space. Despite steady progress in beam phase-space manipulation over the last several decades, future accelerator applications continue to outpace the ability to manipulate the phase space. This situation is especially pronounced for longitudinal beam phase-space manipulation, and is now getting increased attention. Herein, we report the first experimental demonstration of the double emittance exchange concept, which allows for the control of the longitudinal phase space using relatively simple transverse manipulation techniques. The double emittance exchange beamline enables extensive longitudinal manipulation, including tunable bunch compression, time-energy correlation control, and nonlinearity correction, in a remarkably flexible manner. The demonstration of this new method opens the door for arbitrary longitudinal beam manipulations capable of responding to the ever increasing demands of future accelerator applications.

16. Schottky-enabled photoemission in a rf accelerator photoinjector: possible generation of ultralow transverse thermal-emittance electron beam.
- Author

Yusof ZM, Conde ME, and Gai W
- Abstract
We present a clear signature of the Schottky effect in a rf photoinjector using photons with energy lower than the Mg cathode work function. This signature is manifested by the shift in the rf phase angle for the onset of the detection of photoelectrons via single-photon absorption and allows for a reasonable estimate of the field enhancement factor. This is a viable method to generate an electron beam with very low thermal emittance and thus, a high brightness beam.
