FETS Ion Source Diagnostics: The Pepperpot Simon Jolly Imperial College UKNF Meeting, 03/05/06
Ion Source Emittance • Simulations of FETS LEBT require correlated X & Y emittance data and space charge compensation data. • Current measurements only give x-x’ and y-y’ emittance measurements, with no x-y correlation. • Requirement for correlated emittance data and information on space charge compensation… • Pepperpot: reduce granularity to gain correlation … Simon Jolly, Imperial College
Pepperpot Principle • Beam segmented by tungsten screen. • Drift length of ~12mm allows beamlets to expand. • Beamlets produce image on phosphor screen. • Copper block prevents beamlets from overlapping. • CCD camera records image of light spots.

Purpose of Pepperpot • Current measurements only give X-X’ and Y-Y’ emittance measurements, with no X-Y correlation. • Pepperpot system reduces granularity of emittance measurement to give correlated measurements: • Arrangement of spots gives (sampled) beam size: X-Y profile. • Expansion and displacements of spots gives X-X’ and Y-Y’ emittance (and also X’-Y’ should we need it). • Sampling at several positions gives space charge estimate (compare to GPT simulation). Simon Jolly, Imperial College
Pepperpot Components • Tungsten grid (25 x 25 holes, 100m diam, 3mm spacing). • Copper block allows beamlets to expand. • Phosphor screen images beamlets. • Light from phosphor recorded by fast CCD camera (500ns shutter). • Lens system mounted on camera improves resolution. • Light path enclosed in light tight bellows. • Whole system mounted on moving stage to allow longitudinal beam sampling (but camera-to-phosphor distance fixed). Simon Jolly, Imperial College
FETS Pepperpot System (PJS) Complete Pepperpot assembly: • Screen assembly produces beamlets and image on phosphor. • Camera (+ lens) records phosphor image. • Support structure “stolen” from previous system at RAL. • Longitudinal motion from screw thread. Simon Jolly, Imperial College
FETS Pepperpot System (2) Pepperpot screen assembly: • Tungsten screen (100m holes with 3mm spacing). • 10mm thick copper block. • Phosphor screen (P46 or P47 phosphor on glass substrate). • Aluminium mounting block. Simon Jolly, Imperial College
FETS Pepperpot System (3) Pepperpot camera assembly: • PCO 2000 camera with 2048 x 2048 pixel, 15.3 x 15.6 mm CCD. • Firewire connection to PC. • 105 mm Micro-Nikkor macro lens (not shown). • Whole structure mounted on moving stage: 3-arm spider improves sability. Simon Jolly, Imperial College

Next steps • Complete calibration & analysis software in Matlab: • Need prediction of actual hole location before we can calculate emittance. • Alignment comes from “ruler” image: correlate to hole position using test data. • Fix vacuum leaks (new seals/bellows). • Make improved hole size measurements on tungsten screen. • Improved tungsten screen with 50m holes. • Take some real data… Simon Jolly, Imperial College
