UCLA The X-ray Free-electron Laser: Exploring Matter at the angstrom- femtosecond Space and Time Scales C. Pellegrini UCLA/SLAC 2C. Pellegrini, August 7, 2014

UCLA Because they have the unique capability of generating high intensity, coherent X-ray pulses at angstroms wavelength and femtoseconds pulse duration, the characteristics time and space scale for atomic and molecular phenomena. C. Pellegrini, August 7, Why x-ray free electron lasers?

UCLA 4 Development of X-Ray lasers has been a major direction in laser physics almost from the time the first laser was developed in In the conventional atom- based laser approach this task is extremely difficult, because of the very short lifetime of excited atom-core quantum energy levels. Together with the large energy needed to excite inner atomic levels, 1 to 10 KeV compared to about 1 eV for visible lasers, this leads to a requirement for very intense pumping levels to attain population inversion. Early work on X-ray lasers C. Pellegrini, August 7, 2014 Scientists at LLNL used a nuclear weapon to drive an X-ray laser in the Dauphin experiment, apparently with success, in Ted Maiman (25 years after first Ruby laser)

UCLA 5 The X-ray free-electron laser (X-ray FEL) a user facility C. Pellegrini, August 7, 2014 They are the only instruments allowing us to explore matter at the length and time scale typical of atomic and molecular phenomena: Bohr atomic radius, about 1 Å, Bohr period of a valence electron, about 1 fs. X-ray FELs properties:  Tunability, nm  Full transverse coherence  Longitudinal coherence, near transform limited  Pulse duration, few to 100fs  Peak Power, GW Expandable to TW in the future  ph/fs, more at TW level

UCLA Plot from J. Ullrich, A. Rudenko, R. Moshammer, Ann. Rev. Phys. Chem. 63, 635 (2012) X-ray FELs and other light sources The jump by 9 orders of magnitude obtained at LCLS in 2009 is a remarkable event. C. Pellegrini, August 7, Brilliance, also called brightness, is a measure of the coherence of the photon beam. Improved longitudinal coherence will further increase the brilliance.

UCLA 8 X-ray FEL physics: One electron of energy E =mc 2 γ Undulator with N U periods and magnetic field on axis B U. The electron has a sinusoidal trajectory around the axis. Each electron emits a wave train with N U periods For a case like that of LCLS: C. Pellegrini, August 7, 2014 Line width

UCLA C. Pellegrini, August 7, Superposition of wave trains emitted by many, N e, electrons Synchrotron radiation sources Disordered state, single electron wave trains superimpose with random phases. Intensity ~ N e X-ray FEL Ordered state, all wave trains are in phase. Intensity ~ N e 2 N e is about Large possible gain. At 1Å we have about electrons per wavelength. How do we squeeze them in one tenth of the wavelength and have these micro-bunching separated exactly by λ? How do we go from disorder to order? Answer: FEL

UCLA 10 Random Well bunched SASE: a beam self-organization effect.  Evolution of power and longitudinal beam density along the undulator from spontaneous radiation to FEL amplified radiation. The self organization effect can start from the initial noise at the undulator radiation frequency in the electron beam longitudinal distribution, the same that gives the spontaneous radiation. This is a SASE FEL. The instability produces an ordered distribution in the beam, similar to a 1-d relativistic crystal.

UCLA C. Pellegrini, August 7, : LCLS works! The LCLS X-ray pulse duration and intensity can be changed from 100 to a few femtosecond and to photons/pulse, over the wavelength range of 4 to 0.12 nm. Emma P. et al. ScienceThe X-ray pulse wavelength, intensity and duration can be optimized for each experiment, something not possible in other X-ray sources. Transverse coherence: good! Vartanyants et el. Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, , 2011 Longitudinal coherence: good! J. Amann, et al. Nature Photonics,

UCLA C. Pellegrini, August 7, Conclusions LCLS, FLASH, Fermi, SACLA are a new class of photon sources that have: – longitudinal and transverse coherence – control of spectral properties, two colors.. – order of magnitudes larger peak and average brightness New phenomena are being discovered as we learn to utilize their novel capabilities to explore atomic and molecular science at the fs, Å resolution.
