The SLAC polarized electron source laser system

Creators

  • 1. Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, CA (United States)

Description

The Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) has operated a polarized photocathode electron source and titanium sapphire laser for high energy physics collisions for over 6500 hours of nearly continuous operation. The laser system for the source has demonstrated >98.5% total uptime for the duration of the experiment. The laser system uses a pair of titanium sapphire oscillators pumped by frequency doubled YAG lasers to produce 2ns, 250 μJ pulses at wavelengths from 740 nm to 870 nm
