Description

We present the current status of preparations for the experimental demonstration of GW power generation from THz-TBA. The presentation will cover the status of structure fabrication, RF power extraction and absolute power measurement, and THz drive beam preparation. Currently, 0.4 THz structures are being fabricated using two improved methods over previous fabrication techniques. RF power extraction will be achieved using an on-axis elliptical horn antenna and off-axis parabolic mirrors. The RF power will be detected with a bolometer and calibrated based on the total beam energy loss measured by a spectrometer. In recent machine studies, we successfully generated a high-charge bunch train (1 nC/bunch) compatible with 0.4 THz structure.
