Design of a subnanometer resolution beam position monitor for dielectric laser accelerators.

چکیده
We present a new concept for a beam position monitor with the unique ability to map particle beam position to a measurable wavelength. Coupled with an optical spectrograph, this beam position monitor is capable of subnanometer resolution. We describe one possible design, and through finite-element frequency-domain simulations, we show a resolution of 0.7 nm. Because of its high precision and ultracompact form factor, this device is ideal for future x-ray sources and laser-driven particle accelerators "on a chip."

Femtosecond Resolution Bunch Arrival Time Monitor
A need for femtosecond resolution beam arrival time measurements has arisen with the transition from manypicosecond-long bunches in ring-based accelerators to a few femtosecond-long bunches in high-gain free-electron lasers. Here we present an electro-optical detection scheme that uses the signal of a beam pick-up to modulate the intensity of a femtosecond laser pulse train. By detecting the en...
