Abstract A superconducting RF (SRF) gun can generate a high current and high energy beam. It has a possibility to achieve requirement from high performance ERL and high repetition FEL. Target values of the L-band KEK SRF gun are that beam repetition is 1.3 GHz, beam current is 100 mA, beam energy is 2 MeV, emittance is 1 mm mrad or less. The number of cell is 1.5. Accelerating energy of 2 MeV corresponds to 42 MV/m of maximum surface field. The photocathode is designed to be illuminated by excitation laser from backside. The SRF gun cavity consists of the 1.5 cell accelerating cavity, cathode plug and choke filter for protecting the heating of cathode plug. To evaluate these parts individually, these parts are added step by step. High gradient test of the accelerating cell without cathode plug and choke filter was done. The surface peak electric field reached 66 MV/m, and this meet the target value 42 MV/m sufficiently. Next high gradient test will be done after adding the choke filter. The choke filter is designed to be simple to wash choke cell easier. In this conference, we will report the design, fabrication and high gradient performance of the SRF gun cavity with choke filter.
