Electron cloud mitigation is an essential requirement for high-intensity proton circular accelerators. Among other solutions, laser engineered surface structures (LESS) present the advantages of having potentially a very low secondary electron yield (SEY) and allowing simple scalability for mass production.

Optimization of the secondary electron yield of laser-structured copper surfaces at room and cryogenic temperature
/ Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Garcia-Tabares Valdivieso, Elisa (CERN) ; Perez Fontenla, Ana Teresa (CERN) ; Taborelli, Mauro (CERN) ; Neupert, Holger (CERN) ; Himmerlich, Marcel (CERN) ; Chiggiato, Paolo (CERN) ; Bajek, David (Dundee U.) ; Wackerow, Stefan (Dundee U.) ; Abdolvand, Amin (Dundee U.)
Electron cloud (e-cloud) mitigation is an essential requirement for proton circular accelerators in order to guarantee beam stability at a high intensity and limit the heat load on cryogenic sections. Laser-engineered surface structuring is considered a credible process to reduce the secondary electron yield (SEY) of the surfaces facing the beam, thus suppressing the e-cloud phenomenon within the high luminosity upgrade of the LHC collider at CERN (HL-LHC).

Towards the Implementation of Laser Engineered Surface Structures for Electron Cloud Mitigation
/ Sitko, Monika (CERN) ; Abdolvand, Amin (Dundee U.) ; Baglin, Vincent (CERN) ; Bajek, David (Dundee U.) ; Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Chiggiato, Paolo (CERN) ; Colling, Miriam (Daresbury) ; Di Girolamo, Beniamino (CERN) ; Garcia-Tabares Valdivieso, Elisa (CERN) ; Jones, Thomas (Daresbury) et al.
The LHC operation has proven that the electron cloud could be a significant limiting factor in machine performance, in particular for future High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) beams. Electron clouds, generated by electron multipacting in the beam pipes, leads to beam instabilities and beam-induced heat load in cryogenic systems. [...]

Cryogenic surface resistance of copper: Investigation of the impact of surface treatments for secondary electron yield reduction
/ Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Arzeo, Marco (CERN) ; Aull, Sarah (CERN) ; Himmerlich, Marcel (CERN) ; Costa Pinto, Pedro (CERN) ; Vollenberg, Wilhelmus (CERN) ; Di Girolamo, Beniamino (CERN) ; Cruikshank, Paul (CERN) ; Chiggiato, Paolo (CERN) ; Bajek, David (U. Dundee) et al.
The surface resistance of copper samples with an amorphous carbon (a-C) coating or with laser surface structuring, the surface treatments of choice for electron cloud suppression in critical cryogenic sectors of the high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), has been measured for the first time at a cryogenic temperature using the quadrupole resonator at CERN. Three different frequencies of relevance for evaluating beam impedance effects, namely, 400, 800, and 1200 MHz, have been investigated. [...]

First Beam Test of Laser Engineered Surface Structures (LESS) at Cryogenic Temperature in CERN SPS Accelerator
/ Salemme, Roberto (CERN ; Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Abdolvand, Amin (Dundee U.) ; Baglin, Vincent (CERN) ; Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Chiggiato, Paolo (CERN) ; Di Girolamo, Beniamino (CERN) ; Garcia-Tabares Valdivieso, Elisa (CERN) ; Jenninger, Berthold (CERN) ; Prever-Loiri, Laurent (CERN) ; Sitko, Monika (CERN) et al.
Electron cloud mitigation is an essential requirement for accelerators of positive particles with high intensity beams to guarantee beam stability and limited heat load in cryogenic systems. Laser Engineered Surface Structures (LESS) are being considered, within the High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC collider at CERN (HL-LHC), as an option to reduce the Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) of the surfaces facing the beam, thus suppressing the electron cloud phenomenon.

RF characterisation of laser treated copper surfaces for the mitigation of electron cloud in accelerators

In accelerator beam chambers and RF waveguides, electron cloud and multipacting can be mitigated effectively by reducing the secondary electron yield (SEY). In recent years, it has been established that laser surface structuring is a very efficient method to create a copper surface with SEY close to or even below unity. [...]

We have demonstrated out-of-focus ultrafast pulsed laser processing of copper with
a variable working distance, without the need for mechanical movement. This was achieved
by employing a diffractive optical element. [...]
