摘要
An ultra thin and highly efficient photocathode structure is designed and optimized for the 400nm optical wavelength regime. The cathode thickness is comparable to the mean free path of the photoelectron allowing design concepts which are built on non-thermalized photoelectrons. Designs for ultra-low emittance and high quantum efficiency are proposed and first test structures are grown and characterized. Additionally, a discussion on the specifics of the transfer and bonding process of ultra-thin cathodes is presented. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier BV.
