Beam emittance is one of the most important parameters for electron sources. To investigate the beam emittance of the 3.5-cell DC-SC photocathode injector developed at Peking University, a multi-slit emittance measure...
Several kinds of models have already been proposed to explain the photoemission process. The ex- act photoemission theory of the semiconductor photocathode was not well established after decades of research. In this p...

A great deal of effort has been made over the last decades to develop a better polarized electron source for high energy physics. Several laboratories operate DC guns with a gallium arsenide photocathode, which yield ...
In the proposal of the Beijing Advanced Light Source, a compact combination of XERL and XFEL using a common SC linac is being considered. In the meantime, an ERL-FEL test facility is being proposed and will be used fo...
In this paper, we the design study of a L-band DC photocathode gun injector for the ERL (Energy Recovery Linac) test facility. The main parameters of the injector are energy of 2.3 MeV, a bunch length of 2 ps, and a...
In this paper we give a set of analytical formulae to describe the characteristics of photocathode rf guns at any rf frequencies, such as energy, energy spread, bunch length, out going current, and emittance etc. as f...
