            The GaAs-type semiconductor photocathodes (PCs) with a negative electron affinity surface have been used as a polarized electron source and are expected as electron sources for next generation accelerators, such as Linear Colliders and Energy Recovery Linacs. Recently, we have developed transmission-type photocathodes (T-PCs). By using T-PCs, polarized electron beam is extracted from the back-side of laser irradiation-side. This scheme offers great merits in designing electron guns, such as short focusing of the laser light for a high brilliance electron beam and a simple geometrical structure avoiding an interference problem between the laser and the electron beam. The layer structure of the MOVPE-grown superlattice photocathode and the performance of 90% polarization, a super high brilliance, and a high quantum efficiency will be reported.
