Abstract

RF photoinjectors have been under intensive development for the past decade since they promise to be the high-brightness electron beam sources required for FELs. Progress has been sufficiently good to make optically switched RF photoinjectors attractive candidates as injectors for future colliders, especially those colliders which plan to use complex beam pulse structures. Although present RF photoinjectors will not today meet all therequirements of some collider designs, their potential capabilities seem greater as well as more versatile than conventional injectors. The present status and future goals ofRF photoinjectors will be compared. The principle problems remaining for achieving these goals while also providing high reliability for linacs during continuous, long-term operation will be examined.
