Abstract :
We describe a joint program between Advanced Energy Systems (AES) and Jefferson Laboratory (JLab), first to design, construct and commission a high-power, broadband, THz laboratory at the JLab free electron laser (FEL) facility, and secondly to develop a more compact, transportable, high-power THz source. The former facility can today deliver over 100W of broadband THz radiation up to several THz to user laboratories. The latter device, which has about a 50 GHz bandwidth and is tunable, is targeted to deliver on the order of 50 watts average power with a MW of peak power. It is planned for delivery to the JLab facility in 2006.
