Abstract We present a new type of fundamental mode accelerator structure coupler. This coupler has a very simplified mechanical structure and is equipped with a novel vacuum window structure that allows the coupler to be divided into two parts. These two parts are fully thermally isolated, only coupled by thermal radiation. The rf power on the other hand get coupled perfectly from one part to the other. This is truly novel approach which is quite different than the conventional approach to this problem such as chock structure. The structure in general is slightly overmoded. We show that this structure can also be adopted to change the coupling coefficient and thus be tuned for an external Q. This could be of great utility for CW operation. We show the analytical and numerical calculation for a two window variable coupler.
