摘要
We report here the design, simulation, and characterization of a compact electron injector for the formation of high-current, femtosecond electron bunches from a photocathode RF gun without mandatory use of ultra-short laser pulses and a high power RF supply. The proposed injector consists of a 1.6-cell S-band photocathode RF gun to produce the electron beam and a small bunch compressor to increase the peak current. The RF gun is designed to operate at a 65 MV/m accelerating field gradient, and the bunch compressor is a small ff-magnet with a maximum magnetic field gradient of 340 G/cm. The output beam from the gun has 100 pC charge per-bunch that is equivalent to a beam current of similar to 15 A, and output beam from the injector has an RMS bunch length of similar to 439 fs, a peak current of similar to 120Aand anRMS normalized horizontal emittance of 1.21 mm-mrad.
