Abstract: (AIP)
We consider a free-electron laser (FEL) operating in the high-gain regime including the mechanism of self-induced harmonic generation (SIHG). We discuss the mechanism leading to saturation at these higher harmonics and analyze the effect of beam quality variations. Finally, we study an undulator configuration that allows the saturated harmonic power to become comparable with that of the fundamental.
