Description

Laser oscillation between 5 and 10 μm has been obtained with CLIO ('Collaboration for an Infrared Laser at Orsay'). An S-band free electron laser (FEL) dedicated linac has been built for this purpose. The electron beam energy was 40 MeV in this set of experiments. A 0.5 nC charge per bunch of 15 ps duration was passed through a 2 m long undulator. The resonator is a 4.8 m long, metal mirror, optical cavity. The optical beam was coupled out by a CaF2 or ZnSe plate near Brewster incidence (60 deg). The first measurements of accelerator and laser characteristics are presented.
