Description

Photoinjector is an enabling technology for modern accelerator instruments, and photocathode is one of keys to photoinjector performance. Generally, good photocathode features long life time, high quantum efficiency (QE), low thermal emittance, low dark current, and short response time. While cathode lifetime, QE are routinely monitored, cathode thermal emittance is still a time consuming measurement, thus is not routinely measured. In this contribution, a single shot thermal emittance measurement technique is introduced, and both theoretical basics and experiment results are presented.
