Method and apparatus for producing a high gain free electron laser using a large energy spread electron beam

A system including an electron beam source for providing an electron beam and at least one undulator system configured to produce free-electron laser (FEL) radiation is described. The undulator system includes undulators and at least one optical section between the undulators. The undulators are con...

Summary:A system including an electron beam source for providing an electron beam and at least one undulator system configured to produce free-electron laser (FEL) radiation is described. The undulator system includes undulators and at least one optical section between the undulators. The undulators are configured to induce the electron beam to microbunch and radiate coherently. The optical section(s) are configured to operate on the electron beam and the FEL radiation generated by the electron beam.
