| Abstract |
We present a design for a compact X-Band RF thermionic injector consisting of two iris-loaded accelerator structures. Both structures are fed by a single quadrupole-free TM01 mode launcher. In the first structure the electron bunches are extracted from a thermionic cathode. The second structure creates an energy chirp in the bunch for its further ballistic compression. This injector can produce short electron bunches without the need for a magnetic bunch compressor. We are developing this injector as part of a linac-based 91.392 GHz RF power source, which further comprises a booster linac and a mm-wave decelerator structure that extracts 91.392 GHz RF power from the electron beam. This source will be used to power a short-period RF undulator with 1.75 mm period*.
