invited talk

Dielectric laser accelerators are potential candidates to succeed conventional RF accelerators because they can support high accelerating field and use commercial lasers as a power source. The recent results achieved in proof-of-concept experiments will be detailed. The next steps envisaged to demonstrate the viability of dielectric laser acceleration for various applications will be outlined.

223. THz-based acceleration

Franz Kaertner (DESY)

invited talk

The presentation will review the R&D effort on high gradient metallic RF structures. The most recent experimental results, as well as the state-of-the-art theoretical models which describe the mechanisms that limit the gradient, will be detailed. Materials, manufacturing, surface preparation techniques and rf processing methods to improve the RF performance will be discussed.
