Abstract
The introduction of the surface plasmon polarizations makes the emittance of the photocathode complicated. In this paper, the emittance of plasmon-enhanced photocathode is analyzed. It is first demonstrated that the plasmonic near field can increase the emittance of the plasmon-enhanced photocathode. A simulation method has been used to estimate the emittance caused by plasmonic near field, and the suppression method also has been discussed, both of which are significant for the design of high performance plasmon-enhanced photocathode.
