Abstract:The decay characteristics of the originally-activated GaN photocathode are explored by testing the change of quantum efficiency (QE).The QE after degradation for 9 hours can still keep more than 42% of the original value, and after reactivated with cesium, the QEs are almost recovered. The restorations of both the band bending and the ideal Cs/O ratio on the surface, along with the double dipole model are proposed to explain the QE variation of the GaN photocathode. Further exploration should include the roles… Show more
