| Abstract |
RF breakdown in high gradient accelerating structures is a fundamental problem that is still needed better understanding. Past studies have indicated that field emission, which is usually represented by electric field enhancement (i.e. β) produced from the Fowler-Nordheim plot, is strongly coupled to the breakdown problem. A controlled surface study using a high gradient L-band RF gun is being carried out. With a flat cathode, the maximum electric field on the surface reached 10³ MV/m. And electric field as high as 565 MV/m on the surface was achieved by a pin-shaped cathode. The field enhancement factor was measured at different surface field during the conditioning process. Initial results of the study are presented in this paper.
