Room-temperature test system for 162.5 MHz high-power couplers

2019 
Fundamental power couplers are crucial components for feeding radio frequency power to accelerating cavities. Couplers must be tested and conditioned on a room-temperature test stand to evaluate and potentially improve their performance before being installed in an accelerating cavity. A new test system has been designed and is under construction at the institute of modern physics. For this test system, multiple conditioning modes, including the pulse mode, CW mode, and amplitude-sweeping mode, have been embedded in the low-level radio frequency system of the test stand. All of these conditioning modes can be run manually or automatically. In addition, a novel test cavity is proposed and has been designed, which facilitates non-contact conditioning and a multi-purpose test stand.
