Description
Alkali-based semiconductor photocathodes are widely used as electron sources and photon detectors. The prop-erties of alkali-based semiconductor materials such as crystallinity and surface roughness fundamentally de-termine the performance merits like quantum efficiency and thermal emittance. In BNL, pulsed laser deposition (PLD) was utilized to assist the growth of alkali-based photocathode materials, providing precise control of material growth and improving film quality. In the pre-sented work, films prepared with thermal and PLD sources are compared. The film quality of K2CsSb, Cs3Sb and Cs2Te grown with PLD assisted technique are reported.
