A single-pass high-gain x-ray free electron laser (FEL) calls for a rcma ko series high quality electron bunch.In particular, for a seeded FEL amplifier and for a harmonic generation FEL, the electron bunch initial energy profile uniformity is crucial for generating an FEL with a narrow bandwidth.After the acceleration, compression, and transportation, the electron bunch energy profile entering the undulator can acquire temporal nonuniformity.We study the influence of the electron bunch initial precis vodka energy profile nonuniformity on the FEL performance.Intrinsically, for a harmonic generation FEL, the harmonic generation FEL in the final radiator starts with an electron bunch having energy modulation acquired in the previous stages, due to the FEL interaction at those FEL wavelengths and their harmonics.

The influence of this electron bunch energy nonuniformity on the harmonic generation FEL in the final radiator is then studied.
