Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A transmission grating type laser-driven dielectric accelerator (TG-LDA) is a suitable tool for observing fundamental processes of the radiation effects in a living cell. The required electron energy and electronic charge of the bunch are about 1 MeV and 0.01 fC, respectively. The simulation results by using the FDTD code, Meep, showed that acceleration gradients of 48 MeV/m and 600 MeV/m for the low energy electron of 20 keV and the relativistic electron, respectively. An accelerator length to get the energy gain of 1 MeV is 4 mm. The required laser power and energy are 200 MW and 10 mJ, respectively. A restriction on the laser is relaxed by adopting multiple pulses. If the accelerator is illuminated by N-pairs of sequential pulses, the pulse power, pulse width and the pulse energy are reduced to 1/N, 1/N and 1/N2, respectively. The required laser power per pulse is estimated to be 20MW when N=10 of sequential laser pulse is adopted.
