Abstract

An ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) facility is located at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The layout of the UED is divided into two modules. The accelerating module has one S-band photocathode RF gun, one C-band harmonic buncher, and one C-band deflector. The power-generating module has one S-band klystron and one C-band klystron. To meet the high-precision requirements, a MicroTCA.4-based low level radio frequency (LLRF) system is used to provide a stable RF field in the cavities. In this paper, we introduce the RF distributions, LLRF system, firmware and software of the feedback controller, and field stability of the RF gun; and present an analysis of the measurement results for UED.
