Single-shot, Sub-picosecond, EO bunch measurements at FELIX Steven Jamison, Giel Berden, Allan MacLeod Allan Gillespie, Jingling Shen, Dino Jaroszynski, Britta Redlich, Lex van der Meer School of Computing and Advanced Technologies, University of Abertay, Dundee, UK Department of Physics, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK FOM Institute for Plasma Physics “Rijnhuizen”, Nieuwegein, The Netherlands

  2. Single-shot electro-optic detection of ultra-short bunches- spectral-decoding - temporal decoding • FELIX electron bunch measurementsreal time bunch profile adjustment bunch timing jitter charge dependence EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  3. Electro-optic detection of Coulomb field: Spectral decoding method 1.7ps Temporal decoding method 450fs EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  4. Time-resolution of spectral decoding. Time domain Fouriertransform Frequency domain Mixing of optical spectrum with neighbouring frequencies w  W approximate temporal limitation based on bandwidth EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  5. Time-resolution function NOT a smoothing function. Can cause artifacts!! Should be considered as temporal limitation e.g balanced detection: measure change in probe spectrum… EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  6. Lab-bench test-bed for EO techniques able to produce mimic of Coulomb field with unipolar THz pulse from GaAs emitter Single-shot spectral decoding Multi-shot scanning optical delay EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  7. Observe oscillating features on shorter time scale than usual “time resolution” Jamison et al. Opt. Lett. 18 1710 (2003) EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  8. Temporal decoding • Same chirped pulse encoding of Coulomb field information. • Decode information through time-domain measurement of probe intensity Cross-correlation of EO modulated pulse, IOpt(t) ~ EOpt2(t) with transform limited “gate” pulse, Igate(t) (balanced detection example) Time resolution set by gate pulse duration (<50fs) EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  15. EO without any upstream mirror … ZnTe Reflection geometry…. High frequency signal components • cancel during counter-propagating path • sampled during co-propagating path Low frequency components • “averaged” during counter-propagating path • sampled during co-propagating path doubled retardation Have applied this technique to single-shot laser-plasma EO bunch measurements (May & August 2003) EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  19. Bunch profile versus EO signal… • Zero background signal • Signal ~ E2 “Crossed-polarisers” • Small modulation on large background • Signal ~ E “Balanced detection”

  20. Determining Coulomb field from EO signal Using “crossed-polariser” configuration  EO signal  [Coulomb Field]2 Ecoulomb = [EO signal]1/2 Quadratic dependence of EO signal on field confirmed by varying bunch charge ( EO signal  Q2 ) EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004

  25. Need even better time-resolution…. (measuring sub-200fs bunches) . Spectrum-envelope interdependence (spectral-decoding) >300fs bunch duration limitation Solved by temporal decoding ~30-50fs possible >200fs limitation for undistorted measurement Rigorous retrieval of true field possible EO phase matching EO crystal absorption Alternative EO materials. (GaP, GaSe, DAST…) Approximate interpolation… ~30fs possible (?) Time resolution approx. optical pulse duration. ~30 fs. Improvements through X-FROG, ….?

  26. CONCLUSIONS FOR TEMPORAL DECODING….. • Demonstrated non-destructive longitudinal profile measurement with 650fs FWHM bunches • ~450fs FWHM substructure observed • Estimated time resolution ~300fs (2.8THz), due to ZnTe response and low g of bunch • Real-time bunch shape monitoring and adjustment EO measurements at FELIX, Steve Jamison, XFEL2004, Aug 2004
