Abstract

Emittance exchange is a promising technique for next-generation accelerator-based applications. A novel technique is proposed in this paper to exchange emittance of the electron beam between transverse and longitudinal planes in optical wavelength. The emittance exchange configuration consists of a dual-tilted-laser modulator sandwiched by two identical doglegs. Analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the emittance exchange for the electrons at the zero-crossing phase of each laser cycle can be easily achieved with this technique. The proposed technique is quite promising for improving the performance of compact high-gain free-electron laser facilities. Meanwhile, it holds the feasibility to flexibly tailor a beam’s longitudinal shape in the optical scale.
