2 At present to researches in biology, medicine, material and many other areas of science and engineering intensive x-ray beams are applied. Conventional way for production of such beams (with the energy of few KeV and higher) is the use of special magnets – undulators in accelerators [1]. The energy of photons generated in undulator is proportional to a square of the gamma-factor of a particle and is reverse proportional to a period of an undulator (about several centimeters in usual electromagnetic undulator). Thus way at energy of a beam in accelerator about 1 GeV photons are produced with the energy of about 1 KeV. To increase the energy of photon beams is very important for several applications. The idea of creation of undulators on the basis of crystals, in which an intensive periodic electrical field is created by nature, was actively discussed in the last quarter of a century [2-9].

6 Origins for our approach to CU at IHEP The micro- photography of crystal end face with scratches (left) and image of the deflected by this crystal 70 GeV proton beam at distance of 1 m (right).

7 Angular distortion of crystal planes near a surface scratch

8 Scheme of realised crystalline undulator.

9 IHEP workshop: rough scratching by a diamond cutter. SEM image of one of our Si crystal undulators, showing 50 micron grooves on the undulator surface, spaced by 200 micron.

10 IHEP workshop: rough scratching by a diamond cutter. Side view of the sample: micromachining produces periodical deformations that propagate in the bulk of the crystal.

11 Ferrara group technology A special diamond blade scratched one or two faces of silicon plate. The scratches on crystal surface cause a deformation of the crystallographic planes. Potential interest to realize an undulator for positrons with submillimeter spasing

12 The CU samples were tested first by X ray at PNPI

16 Deflected beam profile and efficiency of extraction versus crystal orientation angle.

17 Scheme of CU radiation experiment at IHEP

18 In experiment as this detector were used two calorimeters (not simultaneously): on the basis of crystals of YAlO3 and BGO. Yttrium detector was adapted for registration of photons in the field of 60 KeV up to 2 MeV energy. The BGO detector could register photons with energies from 2 MeV to few GeV.

19 The vacuum box with CU and cleaning magnet (IHEP setup)

20 The photon spectrometer (1) and scintillator trigger (2) mounted on mechanical drivers.

21 Data acquisition system

22 The specific character of this radiation experiment is included in unusual geometry of the source. It has the small sizes in transversal direction ( ~0.3 mm ) and significant extent along the beam, few mm, as it is required about ten undulator periods with 0.5 mm step and 100 Å amplitude. Earlier the experiments on radiation from crystals were carried out with short targets, less than 1 mm.

23 Therefore the first problem consists in identification of a source, as only the small fraction of beam particles cross a crystal (~1/500). We used thin scintillator S1, 500 microns in width as a trigger, and remotely moved a crystal across a beam, therefore have easily found out the source of radiation. Orientation curve that is dependence of a signal on crystal alignment, shown on fig. 3, proves, that the source of radiation is exactly crystal.

24 The number of registered photons versus orientation of a crystal. Ten bins correspond to 1 microradian angle.

25 . The gamma spectrum in oriented (white dots), disoriented crystal(black dots) and background without crystal( square points) measured by BGO detector.

26 The second feature, connected with large extent of crystal, resulted in multiple production of photons, deforming measured spectra. At the energy of positrons 10 GeV the average number of irradiated in crystal photons is about 5, appreciably exceeding by 1 (so called multiplicity factor), thus way most part of undulator events are accomplished by few another photons and registered with distortions.

27 . Spectra of irradiated power from oriented (white dots) and disoriented crystal (black dots) measured by yttrium detector. Two right bins show up 2 MeV signals (oriented/disoriented case) and these bins are decreased 50 times in scale.
