L Introduction
A single-pass, high-gain free-electron laser (FEL) experiment based on the high-
gain harmonic generation (HGHG) theory is underway at the Accelerator Test Facility
(ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) in collaboration with the Advanced
Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) [1]. This project achieved
first lasing in August 1999, when gain of 107 above spontaneous was measured [2,3]. It
has been shown through both the lD [4-7] and 3D [8] analytical models and in 3D
simulations [5-7] that the higher nonlinear harmonics are expected to grow at rates that
scale in inverse proportion to the harmonic number in all single-pass, high-gain FELs.
Also, the powers in these harmonics are expected to be substantial. An HGHG FEL
configuration already implements frequency up-conversion (as explained briefly in the
next section), and, in such a system, these higher nonlinear harmonics are unusually
interesting, as even shorter wavelengths can be exploited simultaneously. The specific
case of the simulated higher nonlinear harmonic output for the BNL/APS HGHG
experiment will be examined here.
II. High-Gain Harmonic Generation (HGHG) Theory
In a self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) FEL, the spontaneous emission
“noise” serves to ignite the FEL bunching process, resulting in a noisy output. In a seeded

(amplified) FEL, however, the output radiation quality is related to the coherence
properties of the seed. In both cases, the process saturates and maximum power is
reached. In practical design, this saturation point should be made to occur in the shortest
possible distance. It is well known that in order to achieve this, both SASE and amplifier
schemes require a high peak current, low emittance, and low energy-spread electron
beam, as well as a properly shimmed undulator, to reduce magnetic error effects on the
electron beam trajectory. From a machine user’s standpoint, the amplifier scheme is more
desirable due to the quality of the output radiation. To reach ultrashort wavelengths in
this mode of operation, however, a seed laser already at the desired short wavelength is
required. In the hard x-ray regime, for example, no seed is currently available.
Another possible mode of FEL operation capable of providing a very desirable
output light beam is HGHG [9,10]. Here, a coherent radiation source, at a subharmonic of
the desired output radiation wavelength overlaps an electron beam resonant with the seed
radiation. Energy modulation of the electron beam with a period equal to the seed
radiation is the result. Following this modulation, a dispersive section is traversed. Spatial
bunching is induced with a strong higher harmonic content. The beam then enters a
second undulator, the radiative section, tuned to resonance at the desired harmonic. (In
the BNL/A.PS HGHG experiment, the second harmonic is of interest.) Coherent radiation
and ultimately saturation at this higher harmonic is then achieved
number of undulator periods and with an excellent beam quality,
within a reasonable
as compared to the
SASE process. Recall that this better beam quality is defined by the coherent seed source.
Although this method has been proven at 5.3 ~m, it could quite possibly be extended to
higher energies, where the radiator is tuned to a much higher harmonic, and possibly
achieve
for the
saturation in the UV, VUV, or x-ray regimes. A schematic of the HGHG process
specific design case of the BNL/APS collaborative experiment is provided in
Figure 1.
111. Nonlinear Harmonic Generation in Single-Pass, Free-Electron Lasers
The nonlinear harmonics grow as bunching at the fundamental occurs. In a planar
undulator, which will be considered here, the natural motion of the electron beam causes
the odd harmonics to be most significant in the forward direction. It is important to
observe that all the harmonic growth rates are faster than the fundamental growth rate;
the gain length scales inversely with the harmonic number [4-8].
In order to illustrate this scaling, consider Maxwell’s equation in 1-D
where the electric field is given by
EX (z, t) = ~~ &h(z) exp[ihkO(z – et)] + cc. ,h
&NL)and the source current is given in terms of a nonlinear conductivity, ~ ,

(2)
(3)
$L) describes the linear interaction. The detailed form for the nonlinearwhere ~
conductivity is not specified here, yet it is included implicitly in the nonlinear
formulation. As stated above, these nonlinear terms are driven by bunching at the
fundamental, and so we can write Maxwell’s equations to lowest order as
(4)
Therefore, if the fundamental grows as & = exp~z ] then the harmonics will grow as
i: = exp[hrz], and the gain length scales as Lg = (2H’)-*. The scaling of the gain
length with the harmonic number is characteristic of the nonlinear mechanism. This is a
well-known phenomenon in traveling wave tubes (TWTS) [11], has been seen in a lD
analysis for the fust and third harmonics in an FEL [4-7], and was exemplified with a 3D
simulation code [5-7]. More recently, a 3D analytical model has been developed and
shows very good agreement with the previous work [8].
IV. Harmonic Output in the BNL/APS HGHG Case
The output power of HGHG at the fundamental, with respect to the resonance
condition of the radiative section of 5.3 pm, has been estimated [1,12]
have been made [2,3]. The theoretical calculations were performed
beam, seed laser, and magnetic parameters listed in Figure 1.

strength of 1.7 kG (R56= 0.97 mm), an input seed laser power of 0.7
107V/m), an incoherent electron beam energy spread of 0.043%, a peak
, and a normalized ernittance of 4 n rnm-mrad, the powers as a function
of distance along the HGHG line are shown in Figure 2 for the fundamental of the
radiative section (5.3 ~) and its four higher harmonics. Note the radiative section begins
at 2.65 m. The higher harmonics are the second through fifth harmonics to the radiative
section resonant wavelength (5.3 ~m), but note they are the fourth, sixth, eighth, and
tenth harmonics of the input seed laser (10.6 pm). This multiplicative increase in the
Ifrequency up-conversion based on the ratio of the resonant wavelengths of the radiative
and modulative sections in HGHG makes these nonlinear harmonics even more fruitful
I than those found in SASE and amplifier schemes. In other words, in HGHG the shorter
I wavelengths are attainable more readily and with more control than the other schemes.
Note the above-described case has slightly better performance than the nominal
beam case for the fimdamental as well as the harmonics and was found by lowering the
dispersive section from 2.30 kG to 1.7 kG (reducing RS6from 1.67 mm to 0.97 mm). In
I addition to the simulations at this case, parameter scans were performed by varying
I dispersion section strength, seed laser power density, emittance, energy spread, and peak
I current, about the nominal design case. Figures 3-7 show the output power and saturation
I length for each of these scans for the fundamental of the radiative section (5.3 pm) and
the four higher harmonics (2.65, 1.77, 1.33, and 1.06 Lm).
I Upon examination of the parameter scans of dispersive section strength and the
Iinput seed power, some comments can be made. Both of these parameters contribute to
the efficiency of the HGHG process and the results of the scans resemble each other
greatly. For example, reduced HGHG efficiency will result from too little energy
I modulation or, alternatively, too little phase-space rotation in the dispersive section leads
Ito an underbunched electron beam at the entrance of the radiative section. Reduced
HGHG efficiency will also result from too much energy modulation or too much phase-
space rotation in the dispersive section as the beam is overbunched when entering the
radiative section. Basically, there is a balance between saturated output power and
saturation length based on the dispersive section strength and the degree of energy
modulation. The optimum HGHG efficiency, if based solely on the degree of energy
modulation and dispersive strengths, is the shortest distance to saturation in the radiative
section. The equation governing this optimum is expressed as
3DisptmiveStwion=/~ .-
Ma.ximumhserlnducedkfodulution
The saturated power decreases fairly readily with degraded electron beam energy
spread, peak current, and emittance, and increases with beam quality. The saturation
length also increases with electron beam degradation and is reduced as the beam quality
sharpens.
v. Conclusion
The nonlinear harmonic output in all single-pass, high-gain FELs is important, as
shorter wavelengths are achievable. The harmonic output from HGHG is particularly
interesting, however, since even shorter wavelengths can be achieved in such a
configuration, and they are imprinted for coherence unlike the noisy SASE case. (The
same is true when using the Bonofacio et al. two-undulator scheme [15] as well.) In this
presentation, the harmonic output from HGHG was shown in simulation by sensitivity
studies of
BNL/APS
the fundamental and four higher harmonics
HGHG experiment. Harmonic measurements
of the radiative section of the
are ongoing at this experiment
and have proven to be comparable to theory/simulation [16].
This harmonic experiment will also be performed for the fundamental and second
harmonic with wavelengths of 530 and 265 nm, respectively, corresponding to an
electron beam energy of=217 MeV in a purely SASE mode of operation at the Advanced
Photon Source’s SASE FEL at Argonne National Laboratory [7,17].
It is the desire of the light source community to achieve shorter wavelengths, on
the order of 1 & and various prototypical experiments other than HGHG are underway
[18] using the fundamental radiation. To achieve even shorter wavelengths with lower
electron beam energies, the nonlinear harmonics, which are generated in self-amplified
spontaneous emission (SASE), amplifier, and HGHG FEL schemes, will be important. In
addition, the use of soft x-ray seed lasers [19] along with combinations of the above
schemes will also be important in obtaining these shorter wavelengths [20-21].
