Abstract

A wide range-infrared free electron laser (IR-FEL) is being constructed for science and industrial applications in the Accelerator Technologies Institute, Ankara University. In the facility, in order to obtain electron beam with energy 40 MeV, 4.5 cell RF cavities are considered. IR-FEL system covers 2.5-250 µm wavelength range that based on 15-40 MeV e-linac and two undulators to generate up to 250 μm coherent infrared radiations. In this study, IR-FEL Resonator System parameters, mirror parameters, undulator parameters besides mirror diffraction losses are calculated and optimized with analytically and by using Optical Propagation Code and GENESIS 1.3. These Codes are also used to simulate beam behavior inside the resonator and along the undulator while GLAD Code is used for mirror diffraction losses.
