In this paper, we propose a novel design of dielectric laser-driven accelerator (DLA) utilizing evanescent electric field of racetrack ring resonator structures. Driven by laser light with the correctly designed optical phase window, sustained acceleration of electrons with controlled deflection is shown. Based on this design, we calculate an acceleration from 30 keV to 148.312 keV in 104.655 {mu}m using a cascaded 11-stage racetrack ring resonators. This new idea poses a solution for on-chip integration of many DLA stages, while maintains high average accelerating gradients, providing a potential practical realization for accelerator on a chip.

Dielectric microstructures have generated much interest in recent years as a means of accelerating charged particles when powered by solid state lasers. The acceleration gradient (or particle energy gain per unit length) is an important figure of mer it. To design structures with high acceleration gradients, we explore the adjoint variable method, a highly efficient technique used to compute the sensitivity of an objective with respect to a large number of parameters. With this formalism, the sensitivity of the acceleration gradient of a dielectric structure with respect to its entire spatial permittivity distribution is calculated by the use of only two full-field electromagnetic simulations, the original and adjoint. The adjoint simulation corresponds physically to the reciprocal situation of a point charge moving through the accelerator gap and radiating. Using this formalism, we perform numerical optimizations aimed at maximizing acceleration gradients, which generate fabricable structures of greatly improved performance in comparison to previously examined geometries.
We propose an on-chip optical power delivery system for dielectric laser accelerators based on a fractal tree-branch dielectric waveguide network. This system replaces experimentally demanding free-space manipulations of the driving laser beam with c hip-integrated techniques based on precise nano-fabrication, enabling access to orders of magnitude increases in the interaction length and total energy gain for these miniature accelerators. Based on computational modeling, in the relativistic regime, our laser delivery system is estimated to provide 21 keV of energy gain over an acceleration length of 192 um with a single laser input, corresponding to a 108 MV/m acceleration gradient. The system may achieve 1 MeV of energy gain over a distance less than 1 cm by sequentially illuminating 49 identical structures. These findings are verified by detailed numerical simulation and modeling of the subcomponents and we provide a discussion of the main constraints, challenges, and relevant parameters in regards to on-chip laser coupling for dielectric laser accelerators.
The frequency stability of lasers is limited by thermal noise in state-of-the-art frequency references. Further improvement requires operation at cryogenic temperature. In this context, we investigate a fiber-based ring resonator. Our system exhibits a first-order temperature-insensitive point around $3.55$ K, much lower than that of crystalline silicon. The observed low sensitivity with respect to vibrations ($<5cdot{10^{-11}},text{m}^{-1} text{s}^{2}$), temperature ($-22(1)cdot{10^{-9}},text{K}^{-2}$) and pressure changes ($4.2(2)cdot{10^{-11}},text{mbar}^{-2}$) makes our approach promising for future precision experiments.
To be useful for most scientific and medical applications, compact particle accelerators will require much higher average current than enabled by current architectures. For this purpose, we propose a photonic crystal architecture for a dielectric las er accelerator, referred to as a multi-input multi-output silicon accelerator (MIMOSA), that enables simultaneous acceleration of multiple electron beams, increasing the total electron throughput by at least one order of magnitude. To achieve this, we show that the photonic crystal must support a mode at the $Gamma$ point in reciprocal space, with a normalized frequency equal to the normalized speed of the phase matched electron. We show that the figure of merit of the MIMOSA can be inferred from the eigenmodes of the corresponding infinitely periodic structure, which provides a powerful approach to design such devices. Additionally, we extend the MIMOSA architecture to electron deflectors and other electron manipulation functionalities. These additional functionalities, combined with the increased electron throughput of these devices, permit all-optical on-chip manipulation of electron beams in a fully integrated architecture compatible with current fabrication technologies, which opens the way to unconventional electron beam shaping, imaging, and radiation generation.
We show that global lower bounds to the mode volume of a dielectric resonator can be computed via Lagrangian duality. State-of-the-art designs rely on sharp tips, but such structures appear to be highly sub-optimal at nanometer-scale feature sizes, a nd we demonstrate that computational inverse design offers orders-of-magnitude possible improvements. Our bound can be applied for geometries that are simultaneously resonant at multiple frequencies, for high-efficiency nonlinear-optics applications, and we identify the unavoidable penalties that must accompany such multiresonant structures.
