Cs<sub>2</sub>Te photocathode response time measurements and femtosecond comb electron beam generation as a milestone towards pre-bunched THz FEL realization

Abstract

Currently there is a rapidly growing demand to increase the brightness of electron beams generated by conventional RF guns as well as to decrease the cost of the injector accelerator system for many research facilities worldwide. To address this demand we investigate one of the most important parameter of the high Q.E. conventional semiconductor Cs₂Te photocathode, its response time. It sets the principle limitation for generated bunch length and hence maximum achievable beam brightness of electron diffraction and pre-bunched THz FEL facility's injectors. The experimental investigation was done at KEK: LUCX facility. The Cs2Te photocathode response time better than 250 fs was demonstrated. The generation of 4 micro-bunch comb electron beam with variable time separation as a crucial technology for pre-bunched THz FEL realization was achieved.
