Appeal No. 97-0128
Application No. 08/098,989
result of this amendment, the Examiner allowed claims 2-5 and
9 as indicated in the advisory action mailed March 23, 1995.
The claimed invention relates to a system for the
development of a conditioned electron beam for application to
a free-electron source of coherent radiation. More
particularly, Appellants indicate at page 3 of the
specification that the system includes sources for generating
an electron beam and microwaves and a magnetic wiggler
responsive to the generated electron beam and microwaves to
develop the conditioned electron beam.
Claim 1 is illustrative of the invention and reads as
follows:
1. A system for developing a conditioned electron beam of a
final quality for application to a free-electron source of
coherent radiation, said system comprising:
means for producing an electron beam having a
predetermined energy and initial quality;
means for generating microwaves; and
a magnetic wiggler responsive to the electron beam from
said producing means and to the microwaves from said
generating means for developing the conditioned electron beam
of final quality, higher than the initial quality, to enhance
the operation of the free-electron source of coherent
radiation.
