Description
Recent advancements in electron beam compression methods have enabled the production of ultrashort electron beams at the sub-femtosecond scale, significantly expanding their applications. However, the temporal resolution of these beams is primarily limited by the flight time jitter, especially during their generation in photocathode RF electron guns. In this paper, to mitigate the impact of microwave phase jitter on the flight time jitter inside the electron gun, we designed a 2.3-cell X-band electron gun, which enables the electron beams to acquire maximum output energy and minimum in-gun flight time at the same injection phase. Moreover, the tolerance of the cavity's machining errors is assessed and the RF input coupler of this cavity has been designed. Our simulation results indicate that this design provides a solid foundation for further improving the temporal resolution of the electron beam.
