Abstract

A compact and high quality x-ray source is required from various fields, such as medical diagnosis, drug manufacturing and biological sciences. Laser-Compton based x-ray source that consist of a compact electron storage ring and a pulsed-laser super-cavity is one of the solutions of compact x-ray source. Pulsed-laser super-cavity has been developed for a compact high brightness x-ray sources at KEK-ATF. The pulsed-laser super-cavity increases the laser power and stably makes small laser beam size at the collision point with the electron beam. Recently, 357MHz mode-locked Nd:VAN laser pulses can be stacked stably in a 420mm long Fabry-Perot cavity with 600 enhancement in our R&D. Therefore, we have planned a compact hard x-ray source using 40MeV multi-bunch electrons and a pulse stacking technology with 42cm Fabry-Perot cavity. (LUCX Project at KEK) The photon flux is multiplied with the number of bunches by using multi-bunch beam and super-cavity. Development of the super-cavity and present result of LUCX will be presented at the conference.
