Abstract The most demanding component of a continuous wave (cw) injector is cw operating RF-gun, delivering highly populated low emittance bunches. RF-guns, both working at room temperature and superconducting, when they generate highly populated low emittance bunches have to be operated at high accelerating gradients to suppress space charge effects diluting emittance. Superconducting RF-guns are technically superior to the normal conducting devices because they dissipate orders of magnitude less power when operating at very high gradients in cw mode. In this contribution progress since 2013 in the R&D programs, designing and operation of the SRF-injectors at KEK, HZB, HZDR, PKU and DESY will be discussed.
