We have commissioned a multiple-energy electron accelerator that illuminates an 800 mm × 800 mm target. The energy of the beam ranges from 0.5 to 5 MeV. A beamline following the accelerator has horizontal and vertical sections that include an alpha dipole and a “focus sextupole”. In the horizontal section, the alpha magnet, having a bend angle of 270° and a field index of 0.8, provides both vertical collimation and energy selection. In the vertical section, a focus sextupole converts the initial Gaussian beam distribution to a uniform distribution in one dimension without beam loss. We used a scanning magnet just ahead of the target to expand the beam in the orthogonal dimension. Using the French code TraceWin, we simulate the beam dynamics in this beamline by integrating electron trajectories through field maps of the magnets. We have determined experimentally that the focus sextupole creates a horizontal strip beam on target having a current density uniformity of better than 90 %. By scanning this strip beam vertically, we have achieved a two-dimensional current density uniformity of better than 90 %. |
