Title: 2.6GHz SRF Cavity Tuner for DarkPhoton Experiment [Poster]
Abstract: There are several experiments ongoing at FNAL that require frequency tuning of bare (undressed) SRF cavities when they are cooled down and operated inside dilution refrigerator. One of these experiments is for the search of dark photons using a 2.6 GHz SRF cavity. The limited heat capacity of a dilution refrigerator prevents using a stepper motor for an SRF cavity tuner. The tuner for the 2.6 GHz SRF cavity will be equipped with encapsulated piezo actuators that will deliver long and short-range frequency tuning. Design of the tuner and results of the testing cavity/tuner system at ambient environment and at T = 77 K will be presented.
