Description
Laser technologies for generating sub-picosecond pulses at different wavelengths have propelled photocathodes to the forefront of electron sources. By leveraging nanofabrication techniques, photocathode research now promises to deliver sources for beams with sub-micron transverse dimensions and sub-nanometer emittances. The techniques for fabricating these sources are versatile, allowing them to be combined with parallel advances in photocathode research. In this talk I will present recent work in fabricating sub-micron photocathodes and
briefly discuss theoretical work motivating further work.
