GaAs-based photocathodes are the most popular electron sources for producing highly spin-polarized electron beams in accelerator physics and condensed matter physics. Spin-polarized photoemission requires activation to achieve Negative Electron Affinity (NEA). Conventional NEA surfaces such as CS-O/NF3 are extremely vacuum sensitive, and this results in rapid QE degradation. In this work, we activated GaAs with various recipes using Cs, Te, and oxygen. We demonstrate NEA activation on GaAs surfaces. Among Cs-Te activated samples, the oxidized sample showed the highest QE and longest lifetime at 780 nm.

We report on the building and commissioning of a high current beamline dedicated to testing novel photocathodes for high current and spin-polarized electron applications. The main features of the beamline are a 200 keV DC electron gun and a beam dump capable of handling 75 kW of beam power. In this report, a Cs3Sb photocathode is used to demonstrate the facilities high current capabilities.
