Our Patents and Discoveries
Objective 2: CBB discoveries and designs are incorporated into a new generation of accelerators and commercialized as products.
Deliverable 2.1: The transfer of CBB methods for preparing a photocathode with MTE < 35 meV and QE >10-3 at laser fluences in excess of 50 mJ/cm2.
Deliverable 2.2: The transfer of CBB methods for a photocathode that can operate for > 1 week with MTE < 35 meV at 50 mJ/cm2 laser fluence and high field (> 100 MV/m) for high peak current applications such as compact XFELs.
Deliverable 2.3: The transfer of CBB methods for a photocathode that can operate for > 1 week with MTE < 100 meV and QE > 1% under high average current (> 50 mA) conditions for hadron coolers and colliders.
Deliverable 2.4: The transfer of CBB technology for a photoemission source with sub-100-nm spot size.
Deliverable 2.5: Methods for producing non-Nb, high-efficiency surfaces with cooling power< 1.5 kW/(active meter) or accelerating fields > 25 MV/m.
Deliverable 2.6: The transfer of CBB ML techniques for tuning the higher-order aberrations in electron microscopes, replacing the regular maintenance interventions by microscope company specialists that are required to keep the conventional alignment software operational.
Deliverable 2.7: Incorporation of other CBB discoveries into new generations of accelerators or commercialization as products.
