摘要
A magnetic transport line, a magnetic field terminator and a positron buncher were designed and built to focus low-energy positron pulses from a Surko-type accumulator on a porous target. The 25 electrodes buncher, which produces a parabolic potential, was designed to implant 5 ns positron bunches with a spot of 3 mm into a target held at cryogenic temperature. These pulses will be used to obtain cooled Ps clouds into vacuum for laser excitation in spectroscopy experiments. By using high-voltage fast switches and a proper mu-metal shield the requirement to form Ps in a free (magnetic and electric) field region was satisfied compatibly with the request of injecting positrons at energies of 5-9 keV. The optical design, the electrical circuitry of the buncher and the construction solutions of the whole apparatus will be presented and explained.
