3 Motivation Provide robust high-gradient (>100 MV/m) accelerator structure Potential advantages of parallel fed, π mode standing-wave (SW) structures over travelling-wave structures minimizes energy available during breakdown maximizes power distribution efficiency enhanced vacuum pumping conductance empirical evidence π mode have lower breakdown rate at given gradient vs. travelling wave structures What is typical fraction of RF drive energy dumped at end of structure Page 3

4 Approach* Individually fed π mode cavities  RF source
Directional Coupler Sc = (1 – i + N)-1/2 Accelerator Cavity Nth Accelerator Load What is initial response (large reflection?) Individually fed π mode cavities *S. Tantawi,” RF distribution system for a set of standing-wave accelerator structures”, Phys. Rev., ST Accel. Beams,vol. 9, issue 11 Page 4

5 Approach - Cont Four RF feed ports per cavity Module of 18 cells
eliminate RF driven dipole modes damp long range wakefields maximizes pump conductance Module of 18 cells 60 MW power (100MV/m) 15 MW each arm directional coupling factors would range from to -3dB -loaded , unloaded power Page 5

7 RF Arm Feed to Cavity Coupling
source Load Accelerator Cavity Short cavity spacing (1.3 cm) precludes use of inline coupler along axis of accelerator structure Optimal configuration has coupler in same plane as cavity Page 7

8 Cross-guide Coupler 3.0 dB coupling 12.5 dB coupling Provides required range of coupling required but not ideal solution large field enhancement on slot edges high construction complexity space limitation would require half-height waveguide (increased loss) Page 8

10 Biplanar Directional Coupler*
Electric field for 3dB Coupler Can be designed for coupling over desired range Compact, minimal field enhancement Planar shape – easy to machine *MIT Radiation Laboratory Series, Vol. 8, “Principles of Microwave Circuits” Page 10

11 Coupling Sensitivity to Parameter Variation
d Variation in coupling will reduce average gradient over structure from optimal value Monte Carlo calculation performed varying u, v, d by +/ cm 12.5 dB design has significantly more sensitivity than 3dB design Coupling Histogram for 3 dB Design Tolerance = +/ cm Coupling Histogram for 12.5 dB Design Tolerance = +/ cm Frequency of Occurrence Frequency of Occurrence Difference from Design Value (%) Difference from Design Value (%) Page 11

12 12.5 dB Coupler Measurement
