Laser-driven particle accelerator-on-a-chip

Accelerator on a Chip International Program (AChIP) aims to create an electron accelerator on a silicon chip. To do this, metal structures are replaced with glass or silicon, and lasers instead of microwaves used to apply energy. “Due to glass’s higher electric field load capacity, the acceleration rate can be increased and thus the same ...
