A compact far infrared free electron laser

Abstract

The Korean Atomic Energy Research Institute and the Budker INP developed a design and manufactured the main parts of a free electron laser with emission power of one watt in the infrared region of 25 to 30 microns including 10-cm microtron. After the commissioning of microtron, beamline and undulator electron beams were transmitted through the undulator and by using a special code microtron electron beam, performance parameters were measured and computed.
