CLIC General Layout (Selected) Key: DR Damping Ring; PDR Pre-Damping Ring. • PDR & DR Kickers ( ): • One injection and extraction system per ring and per beam (8 systems) • Damping rings reduce beam emittance; hence kickers must be high stability (low ripple). Low beam coupling impedance is also required. CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013
DR Kickers: Selected CLIC (2GHzbaseline), ILC & DAΦNE Parameters CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013
CLIC DR Kicker Pulse Definition • Rise time: time needed to reach the required voltage (but includes settling time). 700-1000 ns allowed, less than 100 ns desired; • Settling time: time needed to damp oscillations to within specification; • Beam: 160 ns (for 2 GHz baseline, 900 ns for 1 GHz baseline) time window during which droop and oscillations must be within specification, however because of the kicker mismatch the pulse flattop may be required to be 310 ns (150 ns settling time); • Flattop stability: maximum of ±2x10-4 for combined droop and ripple of DR extraction. This corresponds to ±2.5 V range for 12.5 kV output pulse for DR extraction; • Reproducibility: maximum difference allowed between any two pulses, ±1x10-4; • Fall time: time for voltage to return to zero; • Minimizing rise and fall times reduces stress on kicker system. • To minimize settling time, impedance of system has to be well matched. CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013
Challenges and Issues • ±0.02 % requirement for the pulse flattop stability for DR extraction kicker is an extremely demanding specification: • An order of magnitude better than in any existing systems • Active compensation of droop and ripple will be studied further with the prototype • Impedance mismatches • Suitable high precision measurements of the pulse in the laboratory • Se ±0.02% CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013
Ceramic Support Feedthru Beam DAΦNE Striplines Kicker System with an Inductive Adder and a Stripline Kicker Schematic of kicker system with an inductive adder • Even/Odd Mode Characteristic Impedance • Due to even/odd mode characteristic impedance optimization (Seetalkby C. Belver-Aguilar: CLIC DR Extraction Kicker Design, Manufacturing and Experimental Program), the impedance of the kicker striplines will not be 50 ohm as seen by the adder: • The even mode characteristic impedance (not pulsed, no virtual ground) is seen by the passing beam and this should be 50 ohm • The odd mode characteristic impedance (pulsed with different polarity pulses, virtual ground between striplines) is seen by the adder, 35-41 ohm. Therefore, the inductive adder will not be matched perfectly to the kicker striplines. • Settling time of the reflections will be ~150 ns, therefore the pulse flattop needs to be at least ~310 ns! • The prototype adders are designed for 1 µs pulse width (Taken from: D. Alseni, LNF-INFN, “Fast RF Kicker Design”, April 23-25, 2008.) CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013
Inductive Adder • Inductive Adder • Solid-state switches; • Control electronics referenced to ground; • No electronics referenced to high voltage despite the high voltage output of the adder; • Modularity: the same design can potentially be used for DR and PDR kickers despite the different specifications. The PDR version will require more layers in series; • Redundancy and machine safety: if one switch or layer fails, the adder still gives a significant portion of the required output pulse; • Possibility to generate positive or negative output pulses with the same adder: the polarity of the pulse can be changed by grounding the other end of the output of the adder; • Source impedance is low, hence minimizing number of layers; • The output voltage can be modulated during the pulse.

Operation Principle of an Analogue Modulation Layer • In analoguemodulationlayer, there is no energystoragecapacitorbutthere is resistor Ra • Resistor Ra is effectively in serieswith the load • Loadvoltage: • in whichVmax is the sum of the voltagesover the layersexcept the analoguemodulationlayer, henceVload ≤ Vmax. • Resistor Ra is in parallelwithmagnetizinginductance Lm • PASSIVE MODE: During the pulse, currentthrough Lmincreases, whichcausescurrentthrough Ra to decrease. Therefore, voltageover Radecreases, whichcausesVLoad to increase. Thisvoltagechange is reverse in comparisonwithvoltagedroopcausedbystoragecapacictors in otherlayers. • ACTIVE MODE: Alinearswitchprovides a shuntpath for the currenttroughresistor Ra. Therefore, the voltageover Racanbecontrolledbycontrolling the currentthrough the switch. VLoad No capacitor here Linear switch Va VMax CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013

Status of the Inductive Adder Design • The main detail studies of the inductive adder have been completed, including mechanical design of the adder stack and electrical design of the printed circuit boards (PCBs) • The main components for the prototype adders have been ordered/received (pulse capacitors, transformer cores, semiconductor switches, gate drivers, high precision DC supply) • The mechanical parts have been designed, ordered and partly received (yesterday) for two 5-layer prototypes • The PCBs for the first 5-layer prototype will be layed out by CERN DEM in January-February 2013 and then manufactured.

Status of the Inductive Adder Design (cont’d) • A (prototype) terminating load for testing the prototype inductive adders and the striplines is presently being sort (one possible supplier is Barth Electronics). The specifications are 50 Ω, 12.5 kV, 150W(average), bandwidth: DC…100 MHz.The 10-4 stability of the load during 160 ns long pulse needs to be verified by testing. • On-going studies • Methodology to design the physical dimensions of the inductive adder structure so that its electrical parameters can be adjusted to meet the desired behaviour without several iteration steps. • FastHenry code has been used to compute the inductances of primary circuits of the inductive adder. The code will be used further to compute coupling capacitance and secondary leakage inductance of the adder stack. • The predictions will be verified with the first 5-layer prototype adder and, once verified, this approach can be used to design and fine-tune high performance pulse modulators in the future.

Schedule for Prototyping and Testing • The first 5-layer prototype adder will be assembled in February/March 2013 and testing will be started immediately • Mechanical parts and the main components have been ordered and most of them have been delivered. The printed circuit boards will be manufactured in January/February. • A second 5-layer prototype is scheduled to be ready for testing shortly afterwards. • This adder is needed to test compensation/modulation methods as well as stability of adders in the bipolar setup. In a kicker setup with striplines, negative and positive voltage pulses are needed simultaneously. • The second prototype adder will be based on the updated design of the first prototype. • A full size 20-layer, 12.5 kV, 250 A, inductive adder will be built and tested in June-August 2013 • The transformer cores and storage capacitors have already been ordered for this device. These components have the longest delivery times (~3 months) • Components for the second 20-layer inductive adder will be ordered during 2013. • The transformer cores and storage capacitors for this device have also been ordered. • The design can be updated, if necessary, according to tests with the first 20-layer prototype adder. • Tests with these two 12.5 kV, 250 A inductive adder and the striplines will start in 2014.

Tests and Measurements of Prototype Inductive Adders • Requirements: • Extremely flattop output pulse: 12.5 kV, 250 A, 160 ns with less than ±0.02 % (±2.5 V) of combined droop and ripple. • Reproducibility and stability: the difference of the waveforms of consecutive pulses has to be within ±0.01 % (±10-4). • Tests and Measurements to Demonstrate: • New design methods for impedance modelling: 3D simulation of the inductive adder structure and printed circuit boards, to compute analytically the primary inductance, coupling capacitance and secondary inductance of the adder stack. To my knowledge, this is a novel, important and necessary step in achieving the required performance. • New compensation methods: in order to reach the desired performance, analogue modulation (active and passive) will be applied to improve the output pulse using an analogue modulation layer in the inductive adder. Theoretical studies ,whose results I have previously reported, show that this approach should be effective. • These studies are valuable for gaining experience in designing pulse modulators with very high performance. The results of the studies will be published in conferences in 2013. • The prototype DR kicker striplines will be tested and verified with the prototype inductive adders. • Se Bergoz current transformer Picoscope oscilloscope (12 bit, 100MHz) Partial assembly of a prototype adder CLIC Workshop, Jan 30, 2013

ModulationSchemes • Digital modulation:refers to switching on and off a layer, whose capacitors are precharged to a predetermined voltage, during the output pulse. This is a ”coarse” method to modulate the output and cannot be used to compensate droop. However, turn-on of individual switches or layers may be initiated at different times to reduce ripple. • Analogue modulation: a layer is used to compensate the droop of capacitors, significantly reducing the required capacitance per layer: • Passive analogue modulation: a layer works effectively as an R-L circuit. However there is no ability to change the modulation ”on-line”. • Active analogue modulation: a layer uses linear switches, and can be used to modulate the flattop during the pulse and provides the ability to change the modulation ”on-line”. Active analogue modulation requires linear semiconductor switches, therefore MOSFETs have been chosen as switches. • Se PSpice simulations of the efect of the value of the capacitance per layer upon the flattop droop: (i) with no compensation, (ii) with RL-compensation and (iii) with active analogue modulation.
DoubleKickerSystem: Concept (Extraction) Extraction with two kicker magnets: • Two “identical” pulses are required; • One power supply sends the pulses to 2 “identical” kickers. • 1st kicker system for beam extraction; • 2nd kicker system for compensation of jitter of deflection angle (ripple & droop) from 1st kicker; • Figure shows 1st and 2nd kickers separated by a betatron phase of 2nπ: for a betatron phase of (2n−1)π the 2nd kick is in the other direction. (Anti-Kicker) Time of flight Extraction with one kicker magnet: • Requires a uniform and stable magnetic field pulse. (Kicker) KEK/ATF achieved a factor of 3.3 reduction in kick jitter angle, with respect to a single kicker, with single-bunch measurements.
Example of Double Kicker System for DR Extraction Beam Time-of-Flight compensation. • 1stkicker system (in damping ring) for beam extraction; • 2nd kicker system (in extraction line) for jitter compensation. • In order that beam bunches and kicker field are synchronized in time at the 2nd kicker system, the two kicker systems are powered in parallel. However, additional lengths of transmission line are required to compensate for the beam-of-flight between the 1st and the 2nd kickers. • Potential problems • Different attenuation & dispersion of stripline waveforms (due to length of transmission lines); • Differences between magnetic characteristics of kicker & anti-kicker; • Imperfections in beam-line elements/alignment between kicker & anti-kicker.

Other Issues: Machine safety • If only one of the two striplines is powered, beam will receive ~1/2 deflection; high intensity beam could cause considerable damage to other equipment. This could result if a “single” switch were used for each stripline: an inductive adder (multiple primary switches) will help to avoid this problem. • Fast rise and fall times of field are desirable; e.g. if beam is mis-timed, with respect to the kick pulse, a fast rise/fall time will result in beam being swept faster across downstream materials/devices, minimizing potential damage. • Se

Hence, a novel pulse generator may be required as well as a double kicker system.
