Electropolishing Oxide attack by HydroFluoric acid : re-oxidation Chemistry : Nb Surface Renewal Electrochemistry Standard Chemistry (BCP) Rotating Anode (+) : Nb cavity Cathode (-) : Al FS ( 1:9 ) V ( 17 volt ) – J ( 60 mA/cm2 ) plateau Nb oxidation : Dunked cavity FNP ( 1:1:2 ) Nb oxidation : Hypothesis: Surface roughness ( better water rinse – lower H field enhancement )

Electropolishing BCP large grain cavity  BCP fine grain cavity ( 30 MV/m ) with better surface roughness than EP fine grain cavity @ 40 MV/m Open Question High Gradients @ 40 MV/m are they linked to Electro-Polishing (surface roughness) or just to Electro-Chemistry ? Potential Advantages of Large Grain Nb • Niobium discs sliced directly from ingots • ( saw cut or electrical discharge machining : no forging , no rolling ) • Reduced cost • Less impurities • Quality control more easy adopted as : Alternative Option for ILC 500 GeV WG 5 Report - 2nd ILC Workshop ( Snowmass 2005 )
