We propose a novel gamma-source suitable for generating a polarized positron beam for the next generation of electron-positron colliders, such as the International Linear Collider (ILC) and the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC). This 40-MeV polarized gamma-source is based on Compton scattering inside a picosecond CO2 laser cavity from electron bunches produced by a 4-GeV linac. We identified and experimentally verified the optimum conditions for generating at least one gamma photon per every electron. After multiplication at several consecutive interaction points, the gamma-rays so produced will be stopped on a target, thereby creating a copious numbers of circularly polarized positrons. We address the practical feasibility of having an intra-cavity Compton polarized positron source as the injector for these new colliders.
