An '''insertion device (ID)''' is a component in modern [[synchrotron light source]]s, so called because they are "inserted" into accelerator track. They are periodic magnetic structures that stimulate highly [[Synchrotron_light_source#Brilliance|brilliant]], forward-directed [[synchrotron radiation]] emission by forcing a stored charged particle beam to perform wiggles, or undulations, as they pass through the device. This motion is caused by the [[Lorentz force]], and it is from this oscillatory motion that we get the names for the two classes of device, which are known as [[Wiggler (synchrotron)|wiggler]]s and [[undulator]]s.
As well as creating a brighter light, some insertion devices enable tuning of the light so that different frequencies can be generated for different applications.
 
==History==
The theory behind undulators was developed by [[Vitaly Ginzburg]] in the [[USSR]]. However it was Motz and his team who in 1953 installed the first undulator in a linac at Stanford, using it to generate millimetre wave radiation through to visible light.<ref>{{cite web|last=Robinson|first=Arthur L.|title=X-Ray Data Booklet: History of Synchrotron Radiation|url=http://xdb.lbl.gov/Section2/Sec_2-2.html|accessdate=4 September 2011}}</ref>
 
It was not until the 1970s that undulators were installed in electron storage rings to produce synchrotron radiation. The first institutions to take these devices were the [[Lebedev Physical Institute]] in [[Moscow]], and the [[Tomsk Polytechnic University]]. These installations allowed a fuller characterisation of the behaviour of undulators.
 
Undulators only became practical devices for insertion in synchrotron light sources in 1981, when teams at the [[Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory]] (LBNL), [[Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory]] (SSRL), and at [[Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics]] (BINP) in Russia developed permanent magnetic arrays, known as [[Halbach array]]s, which allowed short repeating periods unachievable with either [[electromagnetic coil]]s or [[superconducting magnet|superconducting coil]]s.
 
Despite their similar function, wigglers were used in [[storage ring]]s for over a decade before they were used to generate synchrotron radiation for [[Beamline#Synchrotron_radiation_beamline|beamline]]s. Wigglers have a [[radiation damping|damping]] effect on storage rings, which is the function to which they first put at the Cambridge Electron Accelerator in Massachusetts in 1966. The first wiggler used for generation of synchrotron radiation was a 7 pole wiggler installed in the SSRL in 1979.
 
Since these first insertions the number of undulators and wigglers in [[List of synchrotron radiation facilities|synchrotron radiation facilities]] throughout the world have proliferated and they are one of the driving technologies behind the next generation of light sources, [[free electron laser]]s.
 
==Operation==
 
Insertion devices are traditionally inserted into straight sections of storage rings (hence their name). As the stored particle beam, usually [[electron]]s, pass through the ID the alternating magnetic field experienced by the particles causes their trajectory to undergo a transverse oscillation. The acceleration associated with this movement stimulates the emission of synchrotron radiation.
 
There is very little mechanical difference between wigglers and undulators and the criterion normally used to distinguish between them is the K-Factor. The K-factor is a dimensionless constant defined as:
 
<math>K=\frac{q B \lambda_u}{2 \pi \beta m c}</math>
 
where ''q'' is the charge of the particle passing through the ID, ''B'' is the peak magnetic field of the ID, ''<math>\lambda_u</math>'' is the period of the ID, ''<math>\beta=v/c</math>'' relates to the speed, or energy of the particle, ''m'' is the mass of the accelerated particle, and ''c'' is the [[speed of light]].
 
Wigglers are deemed to have K>>1 and undulators to have K<1.
 
The K-Factor determines the energy of radiation produced, and in situations where a range of energy is required the K-number can be modified by varying the strength of the magnetic field of the device. In permanent magnet devices this is usually done by increasing the gap between the magnet arrays. In electromagnetic devices the magnetic field is changed by varying the current in the magnet coils.
 
In a [[wiggler (synchrotron)|wiggler]] the period and the strength of the magnetic field is not tuned to the frequency of radiation produced by the electrons. Thus every electron in a bunch radiates independently, and the resulting [[Bandwidth (signal processing)|radiation bandwidth]] is broad. A wiggler can be considered to be series of [[bending magnet]]s concatenated together, and its radiation intensity scales as the number of magnetic poles in the wiggler.
 
In an [[undulator]] source the radiation produced by the oscillating electrons interferes constructively with the motion of other electrons, causing the radiation spectrum to have a relatively narrow bandwidth. The intensity of radiation scales as <math>N^2</math>, where <math>N</math> is the number of poles in the magnet array.
