Control System Design and Upgrade Considerations for the Duke Free Electron Laser Laboratory
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Duke Free Electron Laser Laboratory currently operates two FELs: the OK-4/Duke Storage Ring FEL, and the Mark III IR FEL. Both of these systems were among the early adopters of the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS). The Mark III EPICS control system was completed and operational in September, 1993. The Duke Storage Ring was commissioned in November of 1994 using EPICS. These control systems have proven to be very robust with high reliability over the intervening years. An overview of these current control systems and an upgrade strategy will be presented.

متن کاملDesign of a new asymmetric waveguide in InP-Based multi-quantum well laser
Today, electron leakage in InP-based separate confinement laser diode has a serious effect on device performance. Control of electron leakage current is the aim of many studies in semiconductor laser industry. In this study, for the first time, a new asymmetric waveguide structure with n-interlayer for a 1.325 μm InP-based laser diode with InGaAsP multi-quantum well is proposed and theoreticall...
متن کاملSelf-Fields Effects on Gain in a Helical Wiggler Free Electron Laser with Ion-Channel Guiding and Axial Magnetic Field
In this paper, we have investigated the effects of self-fields on gain in a helical wiggler free electron laser with axial magnetic field and ion-channel guiding. The self-electric and self-magnetic fields of a relativistic electron beam passing through a helical wiggler are analyzed. The electron trajectories and the small signal gain are derived. Numerical investigation is shown that for grou...
