Beamline description

Beamline Layout

The experimental setup for CHG at Elettra is shown in the previous figure. Although on a reduced scale, the scheme is equivalent to the layout designed for seeded single-pass FELs, like FERMI@Elettra. The main difference with LINAC-based FELs is that in this case the electron beam is re-circulated in the storage ring.
The beamline is composed of three main blocks: the optical klystron (the suite of modulator, dispersive section and radiator), the seed laser and timing back-end station and the front-end station. Both the back and front-end stations are used for the detection/diagnostics of the CHG pulses, and to focus the harmonic light into an experiment end-station.
