Spatial (Transverse) Coherence 2s 2s q Dl = q· 2s = l/2 2s' 2q · 2s~ l => qs' X-ray beam is spatially coherent if phase-space area 2ps’s < l/2 => Diffraction limited source: 2ps's = l/2 or e = l/4p Almost diffraction limited: 2ps's ~ l or e ~ l/2p
Temporal (Longitudinal) Coherence l l+Dl Coherence length: lc = l2/Dl Coherence time: Dtc = lc/c Temporally coherent source: pulse length FWHM t£Dtc lc = l2/Dl • uncertainty: t·Dn£ 1 t·DE£h For l = 1 Å, Dl/l = 10-4 : lc = 1 mm, Dtc = 1 mm /3x108 m/s = 3.3 fs Degeneracy Parameter dD = Number of photons in coherent volume = Number of photons within single quantum mode • X-ray optics can modify Dl/l, but extinction length (~100mm) limits to Dl/l = 10-6 =>Dtc= 330 fs • ERL with st = 100 fs pulses coupled with 10 meV x-ray monochromator could mean temporal coherence at 10 keV.
Transverse Coherence from Undulator d L q q = l/2d Example: APS, L =2.4m, l =1.5Å sr' = 13.1 mrad dy = 2.35x21mm, sy' = 6.9 mrad q = 1.5 mrad, Q = 2.35x14.8 mrad => pc(vertical) = 4.3% dx = 2.35x350mm, sx' = 23.1 mrad q = 0.091 mrad, Q = 2.35x26.6 mrad => pc(horizontal) = 0.15% => pc (overall) = 0.006% • A portion, q/Q in each direction, of undulator radiation is spatially coherent within central cone • Coherent fraction pc: depends only on total emittances ERL: pc ~ 20% (45% in x or y)

Far-Field Diffraction Microscopy • Diffraction microscopy is analogous to crystallography, but for noncrystalline materials • Coherent diffraction from noncrystalline specimen: => continuous Fourier transform • Spatial resolution: essentially no limit. (only limited by Dl/l and weak signals at large angles) • Coherence requirement: coherent illumination of sample • Key development: oversampling phasing method coherent flux!!

Short-Pulse Source Comparison fat bunch
Conclusions • Phase II ERL would offer 100x more coherent flux and coherence fraction for hard x-rays than present-day sources, comparable to prototype XFEL source • Many scientific applications benefit substantially, e.g. in coherent scattering & diffraction, and in x-ray holography and coherent patterning, possibly opening up new research areas • Improvements in ERL coherent flux require long undulator, which in turn requires reducing machineenergy spread by bunch decompression or by some other means • Further improvements in coherence are possible only if injector emittance can be further reduced • Ultra-fast mode of ERL can still be a leader in peak brilliance for short-pulses. Further improvement is determined by how much charge in a single bunch and by energy spread from bunch compressor
