Several European labs are coordinating their efforts to obtain a first 1.3 GHz cavity prototype through the I.FAST collaboration and other informal collaborations with CERN and DESY. R&D covers the entire production chain. In particular, new production techniques of seamless Copper and Niobium elliptical cavities via additive manufacturing are studied and evaluated. New acid-free polishing techniques to reduce surface roughness in a more sustainable way such as plasma electropolishing and metallographic polishing have been tested. Optimization of coating parameters of higher Tc SC than Nb (Nb₃Sn, V₃Si, NbTiN) via PVD and multilayer via ALD are on the way. Finally, rapid heat treatments such as Flash Lamp Annealing and Laser Annealing are used to avoid or reduce Cu diffusion in the SC film. The development and characterization of SC coatings is done on planar samples, 6 GHz cavities, choke cavities, QPR and 1.3 GHz cavities. This work presents the progress status of these coordinated efforts.

Three main research directions will be presented: 1/ replacing the niobium oxides by other surface layers (Al₂O₃, Y2O3, MgO) and probe their effect on the low and high field performances, 2/ doping with N and combine approaches 1/ and 2/ and finally 3/ optimize the superconducting properties of NbTiN multilayers on Nb and Sapphire.

Unlike the conventional pathway, the fabrication process is performed after polishing. This point is crucial as the used polishing technology could be applied only to flat geometries. The performed investigation demonstrates that damages during the fabrication process are considered minor, localized, and limited to the near-surface. Moreover, these studies confirm that the damaged layer (100-200 µm) is mainly caused by the rolling process, and not by the subsequent fabrication steps. A laser confocal microscope and SEM-EBSD technique were used to compare samples before and after forming. The preliminary results are discussed and presented in this paper.

Since 2018, IJCLab has been involved in the PIP-II project, assisting with the design, development, and qualification of accelerator components for the SSR2 (Single Spoke Resonator type 2) section of the superconducting linac. The first pre-production components (cavity, coupler, and tuner) have been fabricated, and some of the first qualification tests have been performed at IJCLab.

Couplers should work in CW mode at power level 7.5kW w/o beam and ~15 kW with the 2 mA beam. At pre-production stage we built and tested 6 couplers, produced by CPI (FNAL) and PMB (IJCLab) and 4 more couplers will be tested soon. Two of tested cou-plers had TiN coated ceramic window. In warm test stand two couplers were mounted on the coupling chamber and tested in SW regime at full reflection with phase controlled by position of short and reflection insert. Couplers were tested at pulse mode (up to 25kW) and cw mode (12kW) with HV bias or without bias. Test results demonstrated that 3.5 kV DC bias completely suppresses multipactor in coupler. Vacuum activity in coupler was controlled by e-pickups and build-in vacuum gauges, located near the vacuum side of window. Power processing without DC bias was done for several couplers with and without TiN coating on ceramic window. Test results are presented and discussing in paper.

Coaxial higher order mode (HOM) couplers are the primary design choice to absorb beam-induced power and avoid beam instabilities. We have used 3D-printed and copper-coated HOM couplers for the prototyping and bench RF measurements on the copper PERLE cavities. We have started a collaboration with JLab and CERN on this effort. This paper presents electromagnetic simulations of the cavity HOM-damping performance on those couplers. Bench RF measurements of the HOMs on an 801.58 MHz 2-cell copper cavity performed at JLab are detailed. The results are compared to eigenmode simulations in CST to confirm the design. RF-thermal simulations are conducted to investigate if the studied HOM couplers undergo quenching.

The European Spallation Source (ESS) superconducting linac is the first of its kind to put into op- eration the spoke resonators. After three prototype cavities, 29 ESS production cavities have been processed, tested, as- sembled into cryomodules at IJCLab, and then shipped to Uppsala for the site acceptance test. Seven prototypes for two other major projects, Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Application (MYRRHA) and Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II), designed in collaboration with external institutions, have as well been processed and tested at IJCLab. A new challenge is to fully process series cavi- ties in industry, following the successful implementation of 1.3 GHz elliptical cavities in the other projects. This paper summarises main results obtained from fabrication to final testing, including frequency tuning strategy, performance, limitation in vertical cryostat, and identifies future direction of projects and R&D in the field of spoke cavities.
