Title Experimental Study of the Multipactor Effect in a Partially Dielectric-Loaded Rectangular Waveguide Type Journal Article
Year 2019 Publication IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters Abbreviated Journal IEEE Microw. Wirel. Compon. Lett.
Volume 29 Issue 9 Pages 595-597
Keywords Dielectric; multipactor effect; rectangular waveguide; RF breakdown; Secondary Electron Yield (SEY); waveguide transformer
Abstract This letter presents the experimental study of the multipactor threshold in a partially dielectric-loaded rectangular waveguide, whose results validate a multipactor model recently developed by the authors, which includes the charge distribution appearing on the dielectric surface during the multipactor discharge. First, the variation of the multipactor RF voltage threshold has been theoretically analyzed in different waveguide configurations: in an empty waveguide, and also in the cases of a one-sided and two-sided dielectric-loaded waveguides. To reach this aim, an in-house Monte Carlo simulation tool has been developed. The Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) of the metallic and dielectric materials used in the numerical simulations have been measured experimentally. Finally, an aluminum WR-75 symmetric E-plane rectangular waveguide transformer has been designed and fabricated, in which several multipaction tests have been carried out to validate the in-house software tool, demonstrating an excellent agreement between the simulation results and the experimental data.

Title Analysis of the Multipactor Effect in an RF Electron Gun Photoinjector Type Journal Article
Year 2023 Publication IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Electron Devices
Volume 70 Issue 1 Pages 288-295
Keywords Magnetic tunneling; Multipactor effect; photoinjector; RF breakdown; RF gun
Abstract The objective of this work is the evaluation of the risk of suffering a multipactor discharge within an RF electron gun photoinjector. Photoinjectors are a type of source for intense electron beams, which are the main electron source for synchrotron light sources, such as free-electron lasers. The analyzed device consists of 1.6 cells and it has been designed to operate at the S-band. Besides, around the RF gun there is an emittance compensation solenoid, whose magnetic field prevents the growth of the electron beam emittance, and thus the degradation of the properties of the beam. The multipactor analysis is based on a set of numerical simulations by tracking the trajectories of the electron cloud in the cells of the device. To reach this aim, an in-house multipactor code was developed. Specifically, two different cases were explored: with the emittance compensation solenoid assumed to be off and with the emittance compensation solenoid in operation. For both the cases, multipactor simulations were carried out exploring different RF electric field amplitudes. Moreover, for a better understanding of the multipactor phenomenon, the resonant trajectories of the electrons and the growth rate of the electrons population are investigated.
