Research Areas

The team conducts R&D on accelerator components, such as RF acceleration system, beam-diagnostics, RF timing system for achieving ultimate performance of SASE FEL. The team also carries out R&D on components for Seeded FEL and a high-gradient and high-repetition linac.

Research Subject

  1. Research and development on accelerator components for a Seeded Free-electron laser.
  2. Research and development on a high-gradient and high-repetition linac.
  3. Development of highly-tunable undulators for compact XFELs
  4. Femto-second resolution timing system development
  5. Nano-meter and femto-second resolutions beam monitor development
