N. Sei et al., DESIGN OF AN OPTICAL CAVITY IN THE NIJI-IV FOR HIGH-OUTPUT POWER, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 393(1-3), 1997, pp. 59-63
A new optical cavity system which efficiently takes out intense intrac
avity power of a storage ring free electron laser (SRFEL) in the visib
le and ultraviolet (UV) regions are planed. If a cavity mirror is star
ted to rotate at the peak of an SRFEL macro-pulse to rapidly lead an S
RFEL micro-pulse to the high transmission area, we can dump a part of
the intracavity power sufficiently. A high-speed piezotranslator and a
special mirror holder will realize this system, what is called cavity
dump. The piezotranslator would make the optical cavity mirror rotate
with the angular velocity of 2.52 x 10(-6) rad per one round-trip. In
the case of NIJI-IV FELs, the output power of the micro-pulse would b
e estimated at about 7600 times around 488 nm and about 2700 times aro
und 352 nm as strong as that in the normal operation.
