abstract = {The cost, size and availability of electron accelerators
are dominated by the achievable accelerating gradient.
Conventional high-brightness radio-frequency accelerating
structures operate with 30–50 MeV m$^{-1}$gradients.
Electron accelerators driven with optical or infrared
sources have demonstrated accelerating gradients orders of
magnitude above that achievable with conventional
radio-frequency structures. However, laser-driven wakefield
accelerators require intense femtosecond sources and direct
laser-driven accelerators suffer from low bunch charge,
sub-micron tolerances and sub-femtosecond timing
requirements due to the short wavelength of operation. Here
we demonstrate linear acceleration of electrons with
keVenergy gain using optically generated terahertz pulses.
Terahertz-driven accelerating structures enable
high-gradient electron/proton accelerators with simple
accelerating structures, high repetition rates and
significant charge per bunch. These ultra-compact terahertz
accelerators with extremely short electron bunches hold
great potential to have a transformative impact for free
electron lasers, linear colliders, ultrafast electron
diffraction, X-ray science and medical therapy with X-rays
and electron beams.},
