UVSOR Workshop on THz Coherent Synchrotron Radiation 23-25 September 2007, IMS Okazaki, Japan

Outline

  • Coherent synchrotron radiation from the NSLS VUV/IR storage ring:

– Far-infrared spectroscopy at beamline U12IR – CSR bursts in the ~ 100 GHz spectral range.

  • Coherent transition radiation from the NSLS Source Development

Laboratory linac:

– large THz radiation pulses. – electro-optic measurement setup to sense waveforms/fields – issues when fields are large (time-dependence) – non-linear optics application: phase modulation to control spectral content, chirping, etc.

  • Potential application:

– switching behavior in ferroelectrics, ferromagnets, superconductors.

  • Return to details of Pockels electro-optic effect in terms of the induced phase φ[ETHz(t)] for the

sampling laser:

  • Different terms in phase correspond to simple phase shifts, spectral shifts and even spectral chirping.
  • Result: When THz is sufficiently strong, it modifies the spectral content of the Ti:S laser.
  • Note: for 1% wavelength shift at λ=800nm with 0.5mm ZnTe, need dE/dt = 1.3 MV/cm/ps
  • Application: THz control of ultra-fast laser pulses (tuning, chirp+compression, lensing, …)
  • Effects simplified using an unchirped laser (to sample just a small segment of THz waveform).

Measured Phase Modulation with SDL Linac Coherent THz

  • Electro-optic measurements of SDL THz pulses.

– 35 µJ pulses, 2mm focus, 0.5mm ZnTe.

  • ~ 130 fs (FWHM) unchirped laser sampling pulse, no

polarization analysis.

  • Probably still a mixture of effects

  • ptical alignment and waveform distortion

– walk-off (velocity mis-match) – phase modulation (2nd and 3rd order NLO) – dynamic lensing that affects coupling into spectrometer’s optical fiber.

Outline

  • Coherent synchrotron radiation from the NSLS VUV/IR storage ring:

– Far-infrared spectroscopy at beamline U12IR – CSR bursts in the ~ 100 GHz spectral range.

  • Coherent transition radiation from the NSLS Source Development

Laboratory linac:

– large THz radiation pulses. – electro-optic measurement setup to sense waveforms/fields – issues when fields are large (time-dependence) – non-linear optics application: phase modulation to control spectral content, chirping, etc.

  • Potential application:

– switching behavior in ferroelectrics, ferromagnets, superconductors.

  • Idea:

Use strong THz field to affect magnetization state of a thin film on < 10-12 s time scale.

  • Ex situ approach

Use propagating THz wave external to accelerator. Contrast study at SLAC/SPPS (Stöhr et al, Nature) where specimen was placed inside linac and directly exposed to electron beam.

  • Method:

pre-saturate film, expose to THz field pulse, then perform post image analysis (SEMPA)

  • Similar approach could be used for the study of ferroelectric switching.

Potential Application: Studies of Magnetization Dynamics

Summary

  • Coherent SR bursts from NSLS VUV/IR ring
  • Intense CTR pulses from photo-injected linac

– single-cycle pulses – large electro-optic effects: time-dependence leads to laser phase modulation

  • spectral shifting & chirping
  • could be used to control ultrafast laser pulses.
  • affects in situ EO sampling of thee-beam Coulomb field.
  • Large pulse energy −> strong electric (& magnetic) fields.

– opportunity for studying field-induced ultra-fast switching. – initially: “photographic” samples – or waveform distortion in transmitted THz pulse. – ultimately: THz, other probe (x-rays, electrons)

Making Short Bunches

  • Problem: Electron charge Coulomb repulsion

– Coulomb interaction causes spread in the energy distribution of a bunch. – For a non-relativistic electron, energy spread => velocity spread => distance spread. – BUT: For highly relativistic electrons, velocity spread remains small (mass varies). => Start with long bunch, accelerate to high energy, then compress.

RF Linac voltage (-) Direction of travel

  • n crest (standard)
  • ff crest (energy chirp)

Compression method analogous to light, magnets serve as dispersive optics for electrons.

Statistics

  • Shot-to-shot fluctuations affect

usefulness of pulses for some applications.

– Interferometry – Pump-probe spectroscopy

  • Typical fluctuations 4 to 6% RMS.

– due mostly to variations in

charge (particle number) from laser fluctuations.

  • High rep. rate (average) or single-

shot capability needed.
