Abstract :
R&D on SC quarter wave resonators (QWRs) for heavy ion linacs were initiated in China several years ago. A DC bias-voltage sputtering technology was developed in Peking University for niobium-coated copper QWR. A niobium-sputtered copper QWR with good niobium films was successfully made in October 1999. Low temperature experiments were carried out from November 1999 to September 2000. The accelerating gradient of 5~6 MV/m can be obtained with no beam load at 4.2 K. The QWR is installed after the 2×6 MV tandem and is used to accelerate proton beams. The accelerating gradient of 3 MV/m was obtained with a proton beam load
