Abstract
A photo-cathode (PC) RF gun with 1.6 cell cavity is installed for injector development of the PAL-XFEL and a fs-FIR (Femto-second Far Infrared Radiation) facility being built at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). The short, intense, and low emittance electron beams are produced by the RF PC gun. Performance test of the gun is done including the measurement of RF characterizations such as a resonant frequency and a mode separation. The diagnostics of the beam parameters such as phase, charge, and energy, and emittance are performed. In this article, we present the results of measurement on the RF characterizations and the beam parameter diagnostics of the PC RF gun at the PAL.
