| Abstract |
In a superradiant FEL, the constructive interference of the radiation fields from a periodic electron-pulse train rapidly increases the radiation power at the harmonics of the pulse frequency with a narrow spectrum bandwidth. To generate radiation in the X-ray spectrum, the corresponding pulse frequency of the pre-bunched electron beam should be few tens or even few hundreds PHz. The repetition rate of electron pulses generated from an ordinary RF photoinjector is usually at 10-100 Hz. Even though a superconducting RF accelerator could further increase the repetition rate of electron pulses to few MHz, it is far below the pulse frequency required for a superradiant XFEL. In this paper, we study a technique to generate a PHz ring-like electron-pulse train from an RF photoinjector with a spatially modulated driver laser and a structured photocathode. Our simulation in PARMELA confirms the feasibility of generating such a structured electron-pulse train from the photoinjector. We present our study on the beam dynamics of the structured electron-pulse train during acceleration and the radiation behavior of it in the far field in comparison with that of an ordinary electron beam.
