Design of a cryogenic photocathode gun with a novel TM02 mode coupler for low emittance
摘要
The application of radiofrequency (RF) electron guns operating at cryogenic temperatures can enhance the performance of a photoinjector. The low emittance and increased brightness of the electron beams resulting from the high gradient in the cryogenic photoinjector make it possible to improve the performance of new light sources. As an upgrading scheme for the Shanghai Soft X-ray Free-Electron Laser, this study explores a novel photocathode RF gun by introducing the
