Conditioning history
Operation Plan 4 stages operation Power 50 MW 40 MW 45 MW 35 MW 2 nd 4 th 3 rd 1 st Pulse width 51 ns 91 ns 132 ns 173 ns 4, April, 2016 30, June, 2016 Totally conditioning time: nearly three months, but take the holidays and maintain days out, left 8 weeks to test deflector. (Test of TD24R#05 begin July 2016) The first x-band structure design, fabrication, brazing and test, so we want to test more pulse width, and get more breakdowns information at different width, feed back to the design and technology of fabrication and brazing. Start from 51ns, final target power is 50MW @173ns. Due to the limit of conditioning time, and worried about lots of time will used on higher power and longer pulse width, so the conditioning process operated as we planed. Power up to nearly 45 MW, lots of breakdowns prevent power increase. Lots of problems, not bad things.

Breakdown Position Analysis Results Different pulse width operation have the same trend, all have two “hot spot” in the up and downstream; Divide the structure into three parts, middle parts, upstream parts and downstream parts. In the middle parts, the number of breakdown almost the same each cell. A few of breakdowns out of range of structure, accuracy of the breakdown position from program is not enough, need more analysis. Lots of breakdowns happen in the upstream and downstream of the structure, not reasonable .
Breakdown Position Analysis Results 132ns Running Run#10 Take 132ns running as an example Run#17 Population of breakdown cell as processing ▽ △ ◇ □ ○ Lots of breakdowns in upstream cells Further processing, appeared breakdowns in the downstream Suspected that the breakdowns resulted by leaking of alloy into the structure
Cutoff analysis-cut view Disk Coupler aperture Location of leaking @ first brazing Cutting view of deflector, and made several samples to observe in the optical microscope and SEM; The dirty things in the cavities, they are not caused by breakdown. Liquid with acid to clean the cavity after wire-cutting
Image under optical microscope Image under optical microscope, it is Results under optical microscope obvious that the positions in the coupler upstream and downstream where breakdown frequently are concentrated in the coupler aperture. Damaged heavily More analysis will carry out in scanning electron microscope. Input side Disks from upstream and downstream Output side
Test results to design 1mm The test results show that the frequently breakdown in the coupler prevent the higher power running. Optimization of coupler will used on new deflector design.
Summary The first prototype of x-band deflecting structure has been finished, including design, fabrication, brazing, test, tuning and high power test …… Have found some problems of fabrication and brazing, analysis about BD position, such as cut structure to halves have done and the analysis results basically reflected the problem of design. Optimization of coupler will used on new deflector design.
