The SRF world has made considerable advances in the last 15 years on the performance of bulk niobium cavities. Processing recipes like N-doping and 120C baking are now being accepted as standard and consistently delivered by industry. New treatments like mid-T baking are now being incorporated into some project processing recipes as well. Thin film research is advancing with the mission to...
There is intense current interest in applying short-wavelength FELs to semiconductor manufacturing. Next-generation FEL techniques are being developed to address two advanced chip fabrication challenges: high-average-power lithography sources; and few-nm-resolution metrology. Aspects of the significant new activity in EUV lithography FELs, likely to impact the industry in the coming years, are...
