To check the performance of a planned low emittance gun for the PSI-XFEL project, a 500 kV pulsed diode based gun test facility was constructed at PSI in 2007. The gun was specially designed to have an adjustable gap between the cathode and the anode, and to allow extensive high gradient tests. Since the electron temperature at the cathode determines the minimum achievable slice emittance, we concentrated our efforts on measuring the thermal emittance of a diamond turned copper cathode. After minimizing emittance contributions from nonlinear electromagnetic RF fields, linear and nonlinear space charge forces, chromatic effects, and image noise in the emittance measurement method, we obtained a small thermal emittance of about 0.2 μm with the copper cathode for the rms laser beam spotsize on the photo-cathode of about 330 μm at 40 MV/m. In this paper, we report on our low thermal emittance measurement results with a diamond turned copper cathode at the LEG facility.
