Abstract In order to achieve the CW electron beam with a high average current up to 1 mA and a very low emittance of 1 μm, an improved superconducting photo-injector (ELBE SRF-Gun-II) has been installed and commissioned at HZDR since 2014. This new gun replaces the first 3.5-cell SRF gun (SRF-Gun-I) at the SC Linac ELBE. The RF performance of the niobium cavity has been evaluated, the beam parameters for low charge bunches have been measured, and the first beam has been guided into the ELBE beam line. The results agree with the simulation very well. The photocathode transfer system has been installed for the first high current beam test planned in 2015. However, the unexpected strong degradation on the cavity and also on the photocathode was found soon after the first photocathode exchange. In this contribution the results of the SRF-Gun-II commissioning and the latest experiment will be presented in detail.
