We report on the design of the photocathode laser for a superconducting RF gun under development at the Forschungszentrum Rossendorf. The laser consists of a short-pulse oscillator, a pulse-picking Pockels cell, a linear amplifier chain and a frequency conversion stage. It generates pulses of about 5 ps duration with 13 MHz repetition rate and 1 W average power at 263 nm wavelength. Both the oscillator and the amplifiers are pumped by fiber-coupled semiconductor diodes. Nd:YLF is used as the gain medium of this laser. It introduces only small distortions on the optical wavefront of the laser beam and supports pulses of a few picoseconds duration. The beamline which transfers the laser beam to the photocathode of the RF gun has a large impact on the final beam profile. One can optimize the emittance of the electron beam by illuminating the cathode with a nearly flat-top beam profile. This is achieved by a pair of aspheric lenses and appropriate imaging optics in the beamline. Simulation of the beamline and its effect on the laser profile at the photocathode of the RF gun are also presented.

At the Forschungszentrum Rossendorf the development and the setup of the 2nd superconducting radio frequency photo electron injector (SRF-Photo-Gun) is nearly finished. One of the main attention was focussed at the treatment of the cavity. Their RF properties were measured at room temperature. The warm tuning was carried out considering pre-stressing and tuning range of both tuners (half cell and full cells). The adjusted field profiles and pass band frequencies of the four fundamental modes met the requirements. An external Q study of the main coupler yielded to an optimal antenna length and showed very good agreement between simulation and measurement. Furthermore the characteristics of the choke filter and both HOM filters were simulated, measured and tuned at the pi-mode frequency. The preparation (etching and rinsing) and the cold test were successfully done at DESY. The poster presents the setup for the measurements as well as a comparison of the simulated and measured results. Submitted as poster to the 2006 FEL conference

We present the designs and report on the progress in construction and testing of the cryomodule and the tuning system for the SRF gun. The SRF gun project, a collaboration of BESSY, DESY, MBI and FZR, aims at the installation of a high average current CW photo injector at the ELBE linac with a Nb cavity. The cryostat consists of a stainless steel vacuum vessel, a warm magnetic shield, a liquid N cooled thermal shield, and a He tank with two-phase supply tube. A heater pot in the He input port will be used for He level control. The 10 kW power coupler is adopted from ELBE module. A cooling and support system for the NC photo cathode has been developed and tested. It allows the adjustment of the cathode with respect to the cavity from outside. The cryomodule will be connected with the 220 W He refrigerator of ELBE and will operate at 1.8 to 2 K. The static thermal loss is expected to be less than 20 W. Two tuners will be installed for separate tuning of the three TESLA cells and the half-cell. The tuners are dual spindle-lever systems with step motors and low-vibration gears outside the cryostat. Functionality, tuning range and accuracy have been tested in cryogenic environment.
