Enhanced synchrotron radiation through shortened electron bunches offers powerful, laser-like light, with recent experiments supporting its feasibility for advanced materials research. Credit: SciTechDaily.com
This method has been successfully tested, marking progress toward a novel type of radiation source that could have significant impacts on materials research.. Steady-state microbunching enables the building efficient and powerful radiation sources for coherent UV radiation in the future. This is very attractive for applications in basic research as well in the semiconductor industry.When ultrafast electrons are deflected, they emit light-synchrotron radiation.
“You need to know that the electrons in a storage ring are not homogeneously distributed,” explains Arnold Kruschinski, PhD student at HZB and lead author of the paper. “They move in bunches with a typical length of about a centimeter and a distance of around 60 centimeters. That is six orders of magnitude more than the micro-bunches proposed by Alexander Chao.
