Abstract A cryocooled 2.6-cell C-band photocathode RF gun is under development at Nihon University in collaboration with KEK. The RF characteristics of a pillbox-type 2.6-cell C-band RF cavity at 20 K were in agreement with the theoretical predictions. The result of the cold test for a cavity with the input coupler confirmed the same characteristics. Based on these results a refined cold model of the 20-K cryocooled photocathode RF gun has been designed using SUPERFISH and CST-STUDIO. The separation between the TM01 pi and the TM01 half-pi modes has been increased from 20 MHz to 52 MHz by extending the diameter of the cavity iris and reducing the disk thickness. The 2.6-cell structure has been modified from pillbox to ellipsoid-like type. The end-plate of the 0.6-cell cavity has a center hole for bead-pull measurements of the on-axis electric filed through the entire structure. Mounting of a photocathode assembly in the end-plate has not been considered, since the purpose is solely to measure the low-power and low-temperature RF characteristics. A new design for the input coupler has been employed. The cavity will be completed early in 2016.
