Introduction
•Application of high-brightness photo-injectors:
- high energy linear colliders (needs flat beam ey/ex <<1)
- radiation sources (FELs, linac-based SR)
- X-rays production (XTR, Thomson)
- plasma-based electron sources-drivers,…
•Many accelerator test facilities in operation based on photo-injectors:
- dedicated to beam physics (BNL, UCLA, DESY-Z, NERL...)
- drive user-facility (Jlab, DESY-HH,…)
•Figure-of-merits: emittance (FELs requires e<l) , peak current,
average current (photon flux), local energy spread, bunch length (e.g.
for probing ultra-fast phenomena)…

Few words on Lasers
•For metal, typical laser energy required: 5-500 mJ/pulse
•For semi-conductor: 0.5 mJ/pulse
•Metallic cathodes are bad candidates for high-average power
machine [one might need an FEL-based photo-cathode laser to
have 100 W level in the UV. E.g. see Zholents’s talk at BNL
PERL workshop 01/2001]

Thermal Emittance (CNT’D)
To date no thermal emittance measurement for Cs2Te cathodes has been
performed [plan at INFN Milano are underway]
Several groups have measured thermal emittance of GaAs:
* Duhnam et al., on the Illinois/CEBAF polarized beam (PAC1993) at
room temperature
* Orlov et al., at Heidelberg (Appl. Phys. Lett. 78: 2171 (2001)) at 70 K
The measurements indicate that a reduction of the cathode temperature
results in a lower transverse kT for the emitted e-. This is particular to NEA
cathodes where electrons from thermalized population can escape.
The price to pay is the long emission time of 10-20ps

VUV-FEL driven TTF injector
Primary electron bunches (charge 3nC) are produced by laser-driven rf gun
During single pass of the undulator primary bunch produces powerful VUV radiation (l=95 nm)
Radiation is reflected by plane SiC mirror and is directed back to the photocathode of rf gun
Electron bunch produced by SASE radiation (charge up to 0.5 nC) is accelerated

Conclusions
•ATF at BNL has set new record in brightness
•Both BNL-type and DESY-type gun have driven short wavelength
single-pass FELs to saturation (LEUTL, TTF-1).
•ELSA-2 at Bruyeres-le-Chatel has demonstrated the targeted emittance
number of 1 mm-mrad at 1 nC (to the expense of bunch length)
•Presently achieved performances with a DC gun are comparable to rfgun running with high duty cycle (in term of brightness).
- better candidate to drive high photon-flux based on ERL?
- largest average brightness
- and E-field of 25 MV/m have been achieved in experiment
•Many other developments I have not addressed (hybrid DC/RF guns,
hybrid plasma/photo-emission guns, needle cathodes, etc…)
