Description
We propose and simulate a scheme for generating coherent short-wavelength radiation exploiting the intrinsic coherence of emission from a compressed, high-current electron beam. When the bunch length is shorter than the resonant wavelength, the undulator radiation is temporally coherent. This radiation is extracted and optically refocused onto a second, longer electron beam, acting as a coherent seed which drives a large energy modulation. A dispersive section converts this modulation into microbunching, enabling harmonic upconversion to shorter wavelengths via high-gain harmonic generation.
