| Abstract | We have continued the study of a suitable electron beam transport line, which is both isochronous and achromatic, for the free electron laser being designed at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. A refined version of the beam transport optics is discussed that accommodates two different modes of FEL wavelength tuning. For the fine tuning involving a small change of the electron beam energy, sextupoles are added to cancel the leading nonlinear dispersion. For the main nming involving the change of the undulator gap, a practical solution of maintaining the beam matching condition is presented. Calculation of the higher order aberrations is facilitated by a newly developed code. 1 . Introduction An infrared free electron laser (IRFEL) is being designed for the Chemical Dynamics Research Laboratory (CDRL) at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory [1],[2]. Being a user facility for fundamental chemical research, the FEL (henceforth referred to as the CDRL-FEL) must meet a very tight set of performance specifications, especially on various jitters. The beam transport configuration from the accelerator to the FEL must accordingly be carefully designed to satisfy * This work was supported by the Director, Office of Energy Research, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Materials Sciences Division, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC03-76SF00098. |
