The available momentum space of a FODO lattice is determined by the maximum value of the dispersion function ([delta]x=D[sub x] [partial derivative]p/p). In a regular FODO lattice the dispersion function oscillates between its maximum and minimum values, which are always positive. The maximum value of the dispersion function in a FODO cell of a fixed length depends on the cell phase difference. An example of a new lattice, in which the dispersion function is lowered to half its value in the same FODO cell, is presented. The available momentum space in the new lattice is raised to twice that in the FODO lattice by allowing the dispersion function to oscillate between the same positive and negative values. The maxima of the dispersion function in the new lattice have half the value of those within the regular 90[degree] cells.
